How to Install a QwikCamp RV Plumbing Waste System by Fernco | DIY RV Sewer Hookup

[@jas8256]

Do NOT EVER use 90 degree angles on solid dump lines … Use 45’s or Y’s … keeps things flowing in the right direction … 90’s slow things down because it is a Hard Turn and that is where the Poo and Paper hang up …

Exactly, great comment! Also another thing they got incorrect is the order of operations, what you want to do is after putting all your fittings on you want to install the pipe from the sewer to the RV, NOT from the RV to the sewer, and the difference is the RV can be moved, the Sewer cannot be. So if you miscalculate the distance in piping you can just move the RV since the pipe is not yet hooked up to it, but if its hooked up to it you'll have a much harder time moving it and might break the pipe.

Hi there, great video. quick question. I have installed permanent connection to my RV to my sewer line beside the house that leads to the city line. I have installed sewer pump to pump it better, my question is, should keep the black and gray valve ON all the time, if not why not? thanks

[@Howtofordummies.]

No you keep black tank closed until it’s full or starting to stink. You can keep the grey water open though.

[@XOChristianaNicole]

@@Howtofordummies.- Personally, I was taught to close the gray tanks, to help flushed out the black tank remnants, after letting that out - as well as to better flush out any food particles and such, in the gray tank, from the kitchen sink.

Nice ...thanks

I really wish this guy was wearing gloves when touching the camper outlet, and sewer opening in the ground.

[@Tutuwright]

Do you have a 3 way connection I have three connections for my Rv

[@gregmurray169]

My RV has two dump outlets. Where can I find/buy the “gate valve bushing” to use with a 4”-3” adapter? I don’t see it on the Fernco website???

[@phillyeaglesbowl5562]

Would you recommend this for a seasonal campground and should I do any maintenance for winter on this set up when the campground is closed?

[@FerncoInc]

Absolutely! As for maintenance, if you keep all the parts connected as is, you should be set through the winter.

[@belindah9790]

Is the white PVC pipe 3” or 4” round?

[@hankgorman9731]

Always check your areas building code. The area I’m in you have to use all abs hard line no soft or pvc pipe fittings/adapters.

[@FerncoInc]

@@belindah9790 Hi Belinda, the PVC pipe in this video is 3".

[@AllisonSantis-i6j]

Hi where I can get it?

[@shenadeering8976]

Can you put a rhino sewer hose down into the pvc with a heat tape for the winter

[@hexchad765]

Can you leave it out all winter long in below freezing?

[@jeepwk6.5L]

If you winterize the pipe, then yes. I always hard pipe my camper

[@thearmoniaband9189]

What size PVC pipe did you use? Thanks

[@FerncoInc]

3" SCH. 40 PVC plastic was used. :-)

[@RichGiordano-q8h]

Who carries 8’ lengths of 4” pvc in their RV?!

[@catiesobolewski4112]

Obviously, this is to use if you're keeping your RV on your own land...

[@Xanthro2]

Thank you

[@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076]

Or go to lowes and buy all of it for much less😅

[@jckdnls9292]

Right? And 2 x45s straight to the intake.. U don't need that 90

[@bobcloughjr]

Congratulations, you've created multiple points on which toilet paper and shit can get hung up on.

[@LoganAlbert]

Much better option than those stinky slinkies. Those things just collect 💩

[@Jamiedoh789]

Why not just use the hose? I mean who the hell does this? Can't you hest tape a hose?

[@JamesL5150]

I don’t like the idea of this bushing connection when the bayonet type adapter would be much easier and probably a better connection. I also think it would be much better for flow to run like a 23° or 45° from the trailer connection point and run straight-ish towards the septic/sewer connection point rather than the long straight runs with 90s. I guess it would all depend on the specific location and rv setup. I agree with the person above, the kit idea like this isn’t really that practical when it would be much better to go to a store and buy exactly what you need for your specific setup. But hey, if you can make a bit of money on your kits, more power to you.

[@albertc7375]

Straight line 😂

[@markjackson1970]

That’s way too much work to setup and breakdown every time you move

[@dans2516]

This mostly applies to seasonal site campers. @markjackson1970

[@gregoryhenriksen957]

Who designed this?…so not right!
