    Slow Draining Grey tanks

    Just purchased a brand new Solitude 379FL and are on our "shake out" cruise. Shower was not draining until about two inches of water collected in the bottom and was "assisted" down the drain. Decided to empty #2 grey tank but it appeared not to drain even though showed 1/3 full. Shower still needs "assist" to drain and only then very slow.

    I don'y do Facebook either. But there is plenty of good info here on the forum. Enough to keep me busy adding stuff, checking stuff, and fixing things. Don't know if I could handle any more info. Lol

    One of the great things about this forum is that it is "searchable".
    The info you might be looking for may not follow the original title of the thread.

    For example, this thread includes advice from the factory on this topic. http://www.mygrandrv.com/for...er+drain+valve
