This is how I solved the grey water problem.  I went to my hardware store and bought two PVC fittings that screws on to the outlet and is the size of the sewer hose.  Then bought a water container.  The other fitting and the rest of the hose (bought 20') are used when I'm at a full service hook up. OK, I'm almost ready to do this or similar version. Haven't gone on the quest for fittings yet. I bought the adapters to use a water hose for the drain hose. I need a fitting that will fit on my Shasta Compact drain pipe that will convert to a standard sewer fitting. Can anyone tell me what I need before I go on a blind quest? |

Is it sink drain only? Not sure what the fittin is coming out, but if it's the threaded pipe, just get a whatever size pipe to hose bib adapter at the depot

I bought one of those Hydrolller water tanks online, put a 90 degree PVC elbow on the grey water outlet on the camper and have the Hydroller on a wide step stool so the grey water runs right into the tank....no hose needed. (I think that was a run on sentence).

ShastaJ, the only problem with that is some campgrounds probably would not allow that. I know that back home the raccoons would love the open water container.
And yes, Pirate, it's just the sink water. First, I have to figure out how to get all the dirt dauber nests out of it and the vent pipe! I'm going to try to break them up with something and then rinse them out with a hose.

Generally, that is not to be big issue with such a very easy pipes system, yet if you understanding a measured draining sink, you can include a vent outside your area by putting a wye in the pipe to the convenient tank.
