Coming Home
When you come home, there are a few maintenance tasks you should do to get your Roadtrek ready to go for next time. Refer to other sections in
this manual for the procedures listed here.
•
On your way home, dump the black waste water tank at a convenient facility. See the HOW TO’s: Waste Water Dumping for a concise
description of the procedure to do this. Some RV parks and gas stations will let you dump for a fee, some city wastewater plants will let you
dump for free but there is no real pattern, so local knowledge is vital in locating dump stations.

•
At home, flush the water tank and fill it with fresh chlorinated water if you will be using it in the next few days. Otherwise, drain the tank. Don't
let water you are planning to use sit in your tank for more than a week or so, and don't let any water sit in your tank for more than two weeks,
whether you plan on using it or not. Over time, the chlorine evaporates allowing bacteria to grow.
•
To flush the tank, fill it using the fill port located on the driver's side body panel located just behind the front axle under the running board or
the gravity fill located on the passenger side front door pillar; (See images below) (Picture 12.2).
