Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Very nicely done! Makes the original look like it was done by rookies.

I think (hope?) we will see all kinds of different designs of dumping setups (both certified and not :mrgreen: ) being put...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Most of my parts showed up today, and a trip to Menards got the rest, so I got some shop time in. While I was getting parts, I got some test parts for trying a hookup to the "cleanout" side of the...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

So it must be that Avanti's setup has the macerator at the end of the big flex hose. I would surely agree with his dislike of the dip in it, as the pump may not flow enough to pull "sinkers" out of...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Great pic, thanks. Does yours have a macerator also?

Just looked again. Do they have a macerator on the end of the big connected hose?

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

I think that may be what a some of the manufacturers are doing, but I haven't seen any pictures of them. I know Davydd mentioned that on the ARV double dump, you disconnect the macerator and install...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

You certainly could turn the fitting around, but at least in a Roadtrek I don't think it would fit with the big end into the tank recess. Another issue would be that the smaller end doesn't come out...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Again my assumption, but what you show is the hose attached to the normal discharge end of the fitting, as used in a gravity dump system. On Roadtreks that end is attached to the macerator pump. ...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

The Valterra fitting just has a 2" pipe socket for the cleanout port. Roadtrek glues in a 2" female threaded bushing and puts a plug in it. At least in the Chevies, it is in a position that you...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Here is picture from below of the area in question. This fitting has the Roadtrek installed threaded bushing so it sticks out about 3/4" or so further than just the hub would.



Without the...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

There is very little space for anything on the cleanout side, at least on our 07 Chevy 190. The only real space you have is to the rear of the van, as the grey tank is cut away there, so you would...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

That is the 4 way fitting double valve setup that is in our Roadtrek and will remain in place. It is probably the one Peteco has also that he is going to put in. The stuff I am adding and moving...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

Yep, the intent is to have a 3" slide valve before the slinky connection. I also hope to be able to leave the slinky connected all the time similar to the gravity dump Roadtreks used to do, with the...

Re: Dual Dump Setup: Macerator & Gravity Dump

I am trying to take the dual dump setup to a true dual that you can use either the pump or gravity without any changeover that is more than normal use.

Our 07 has the same 4 way tank/valves...
