Frequently Asked Questions
How do I install this RV holding tank?
Installation requires removing your old tank, positioning the new H1117002 tank in the compartment ensuring the left side drain aligns with your plumbing, securing with mounting straps, and connecting fittings for drain, vent, and inlet connections. Since this is a blank tank, you'll need to install fittings separately using appropriate hole saws and sealants. We recommend professional installation if you're not experienced with RV plumbing systems.
Is this compatible with my RV model?
This tank fits any RV with a 60" x 24" x 7" tank compartment and left hand side drain configuration. Measure your existing tank or compartment space carefully before ordering, paying special attention to drain positioning. Common applications include travel trailers, fifth wheels, and motorhomes originally equipped with left side drain tanks with these dimensions.
What does "1 lip" mean on this tank?
The "1 lip" refers to a raised edge or flange on the tank that provides additional structural support and mounting options. This design feature helps with secure installation and proper alignment during mounting.
What fittings do I need for installation?
You'll need drain fittings, vent fittings, inlet fittings, and potentially a tank monitor sensor depending on your RV's configuration. Browse our fittings kits or contact us via AI Live Chat with your specific requirements for personalized recommendations.
Can this be used for both black water and gray water?
Yes, this tank is suitable for black water (toilet waste), gray water (sink/shower drainage), or holding tank applications. The high-density polyethylene construction meets health and safety standards for all RV waste storage needs.
What's the difference between left side and right side drain tanks?
The drain position refers to where the drain outlet is located when viewing the tank from a specific orientation. Left side vs. right side drain placement must match your RV's existing plumbing configuration for proper installation. Always verify your current tank's drain position before ordering a replacement.
