Black Tank Spray System

Hi,

We are looking seriously at moving to an Eagle Super Lite 298RES. Jayco does not offer a black tank spray system w/ this line. We don't have one now in our 22FB and we are fine w/o it.

For those who have these, are they really worth it?

For those who have had one added by a dealer or service afterwards, about how much did it run you?

Thanks,

Mike

I have one and it sure makes dumping easy when you have a little too little water in the tank with the solids. A couple of flushes with it and all is right with the world again.

The tank tornado is only about $30. It is a pretty easy do it yourself job if you are the least bit handy b

I ordered mine with the new trailer. It's a dealer add-on. $119 installed.

Had one the past 10-12 years and will never own another RV without one.

We have one but havn't used it yet. I always make sure there is plenty of water in the tank after I dump it. We have had campers since 1976 and have never had a black tank problem.

We had Jayco install a black tank flush on our TT last year when it was being built. It cost us $189.00. I do appreciate the job it does and try to remember to use it several times a year.
