Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the H3977 will fit my Forest River or Coachmen RV?
The H3977 is designed as a direct replacement for Forest River part number 604325013 and Coachmen F100325350. Measure your existing tank or underbelly compartment to confirm: 52" length x 22" width x 8.25" height. The specifically placed fittings match the original Forest River and Coachmen tank configurations for straightforward installation.
Can I use this tank for both black water and gray water?
Yes, ICON holding tanks are designed for dual-purpose use. You can use the H3977 for black water (toilet waste), gray water (sink/shower drainage), or a combination system depending on your RV's plumbing configuration. The extra-thick polyethylene construction handles both applications.
What makes this tank specific to Forest River and Coachmen RVs?
The H3977 features specifically placed fittings that correspond to certain Forest River and Coachmen applications. This means the drain fitting, sensor locations, and mounting points are positioned to match the original equipment tank, making installation easier and ensuring proper fit without custom modifications.
Is 29 gallons enough capacity for extended trips?
A 29-gallon holding tank is ideal for extended trips for 1-2 people. For reference, a typical RV toilet flush uses about 0.5 gallons, so you'd get approximately 58 flushes before needing to dump. If you need more capacity, consider upgrading to the 31-gallon H3858 or 33-gallon H3925.
How do I install the H3977 holding tank?
Installation requires removing your old tank, positioning the H3977 in the underbelly compartment, securing it with mounting straps or brackets, and connecting the drain valve, vent line, and inlet plumbing. The specifically placed fittings should align with your existing Forest River or Coachmen plumbing connections. Professional installation is recommended if you're not experienced with RV plumbing systems.
What makes ICON tanks better than OEM Forest River or Coachmen tanks?
ICON tanks are engineered with extra-thick polyethylene material (thicker than many OEM tanks), providing superior resistance to cracking, warping, and chemical damage. The seamless rotational molding process eliminates weak joints, and IAPMO/CSA certifications ensure the tank meets rigorous safety standards. Many Forest River and Coachmen owners report ICON tanks outlasting their original equipment tanks.
