| Why not grey water into black tank?
I've been wandering in a dangerous place -- inside my head. I am repairing/remodeling a 1973, 31', SLY, rear bath. I have the rear bumper off and the underbelly skin off to fully expose the black water tank. Repairs to the supports are underway. And, I am waiting for a replacement dump valve. This vintage trailer does not have a grey water tank. All the dish/sink/bath water is directed into the dump pipe just aft of the dump valve.
Why can't I put a valve on the grey water line to divert it into the black water tank? A "Y" connector/valve would allow grey water into the black tank if, for example, we are stopped on the roadside for lunch and want to wash up. Otherwise, it seems the water goes on the ground! Untidy.
As long as all the sinks have water traps I shouldn't get any sewer gas odor. Right?
What am I missing?
