RV toilet paper test video shows you how to check your own favorites

The perennial question: RV toilet paper versus regular toilet paper. Single ply versus multi-ply. Maybe even standard versus perfumed? You need to do more than just keep the royal tush happy -- keep that holding tank free of clogs.

Here's one way to see how different rolled wipes stack up.

Great dumping test! "Sewer Solution" versus standard hose dumping

If you've been around RVers for any length of time, you know that one of their favorite topics is tank dumping. Don't ask us why -- it does seem a bit perverse, chatting up a subject that by its very nature is a bit on the stinky side. But like it or not, RV campfire chats always seem to wind up here.

Most all RVers agree on the time-honored advice: Wait until your black water tank is nearly full before you dump. That way, you'll whisk away all those little floaters and clingons that can make a black tank a real bad boy. But what about if you use one of those fancy tank dumping systems, the "Sewer Solution." This system allows you to forget about the standard 3" dump hose and, using water pressure, pump out your tanks through a garden hose, uphill, and up to 100 feet away from your RV. Do they really work?

We've had and used a Sewer Solution system for some years. We can say we've been "happy" with it, but could we really say how well it worked in comparison with a standard dump hose? Nope, can't say we've ever poked our eyeball into the depths of the blackwater tank to see how things worked. Enter the folks at The Fit RV, a do-it-yourselfer folk who like to produce videos. They built a test module 'black water tank,' and compared just how well the Sewer Solution system works, compared to the standard dump hose -- and the results were quite revealing -- once you get over what they used to fill the black tank with!
