Vent placement for the new head
Posted 09-17-2010 at 08:18 PM by hollyhunter
We need to vent the head, but don't really want to bring it up through the whaletail. If we run it slightly forward it impedes the folding door from closing. Not sure if we can run the flexible vent hose along the floor, behind the drawers and up through the closet. Any ideas?

Holly, your blog tends to keep matters all in one place. But I wonder if you wouldn't get broader feedback if you posted in the main forums (eg, somewhere in the 'Plumbing - Systems & Fixtures' subforum).
Won't leap ahead and do that for you... The light moderator hand being better, yada-yada...
But I think your principal venting issue would be for the black tank. With that in place you would negate any backflow and negative experiences when you opened the flush valve.
The over-riding issue is that RV toilets do tend to be directly overhead of the black tank. Can you coordinate the toilet, tank & vent to be vertically in the same area? I'd think that a vent shouldn't take any right angle turns up from the black tank. Keep the vent slope at least 3:2 or 4:3.Posted 09-19-2010 at 08:16 PM by CanoeStream
