Need ideas

[kreid]

Hey guys and gals,Jayco has a poor design when it comes to the dump valve location for the rear tanks on my 365bhs. My son took a poop bath this weekend at Disney because he had to crawl under the slide out to access the valve handles that are already on cable extensions. He bumped the sewer hose as it was draining and it popped off.

This is a nightmare to access. Have any of you guys figured out a better way ?

Icky!

Which direction is the valve handle facing? On my htt, Jayco installed a threaded rod, to extend the reach of the handle. On the other end of the rod is the plastic Tee handle. The rod is supported by a simple piece of bent metal near the trailer frame.

Nothing worse than a poop bath. I took one a few months ago.

Maybe I'm not reading this correctly, but Sounds like the dump valve handle is under a slide. If that's the case, were it me, I'd bring in the slide if I had to dump just to make it easier.

You could install power valves. Would it of helped to put the slide in or was it already in?

Cable operated valve with whatever length cable you need and install pull where you want.

Putting the slide in helps but with 3 teenage girls it's hard to keep the camper organized enough to dump the tanks every 2-3 days

maybe get a broom handle and screw an eyelet into the end of it so you can push/pull the T handle? Then you dont have to go a crawling
