I was wondering if anyone can suggest how/where I might gat my hands on a cover that has the sewer hook up for the hose from the trailer so I can just set it up to dump directly into the septic? Have any of you encountered this and if so how did you solve it? any adice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Since you are on septic, make sure you don't use any harsh chemical tank additives in the Airstream (such as formaldahyde-based black tank additives like Thetford) . It will destroy the biotic balance in your septic tank.

If you use a holding tank treatment make sure it's septic compatible

Hey I have a thetford/Valtre adapter. My 06 Classic came with Valtera. aparently new setup for the classics.
If you are coming to the can opener it's yours... I have not seen it lately, may have been destroyed in the accident

clancy boy...

i was in a local rv shop last week...

very old school place...

they had a wall of thetford fittings...

bits from the tank opening,

all the way out to the hose,

and adapters galore...

if you need something, they've got it...

we can talk at the rally.

cheers
