  • The difference between these models is the connection points for the black and gray water pipes. A hub will fit over a pipe while a spigot will fit inside of a pipe.

The # TR38B is a 3" Spigot and 1-1/2" Spigot. The # T38C is a 3" Hub and 1-1/2" Spigot.

  • Why Does The Valterra Bladex Waste Valve Have Gaps Between The Blade And Body
  • Looking more closely at the product pictures we have for the Valterra Bladex Waste Valve # T1003VP you can see the gaps in those pictures as well. It's a fairly common question with this design, but the rubber gaskets are designed to prevent leaking from the connection points of the waste valve to the flange as well as cover the gaps you're seeing when the gasket isn't in place.

  • Solution for Waste Water Staying in Sewer Hoses on RV
  • What I strongly recommend instead that will fix your problem is the Flush King Reverse Flush Valve for RV Holding Tanks and Sewer Hoses - 3" Diameter # F02-4350 because it is designed for the exact problem you are having. It will flush the hoses so the waste water does not stay the "T" on your photo. It would require you to hook up a hose, Flushing Hose for RV Sewer System # W01-4180 (15 feet) or # W01-4300 (25 feet) but would be the remedy to your issue. I have added a link to a video...

  • Is the Interior of Lippert Waste Master RV Sewer Hose LC359724 Smooth
  • The Lippert Waste Master RV Sewer Hose # LC359724 is constructed with an exterior helical coil that lets it extend from its compressed length of 5-feet up to its 20-foot maximum length. The interior white surface of the 3-inch diameter hose is smooth, but if not extended fully the exterior coils will cause the interior to have small circular bumps. The linked photo will help you see what I refer to. The more extended the hose is, the smoother the interior surface will be.

  • How to Determine Correct City Water Inlet Valve for 1995 Rialta
  • I can tell you how to determine what city water inlet valve will work for your 1995 Rialta, but there aren't any specific fits available and we wouldn't have any way of knowing the dimensions required to fit.

For example, the RV City Water Inlet with Brass Check Valve - 1/2" FPT - Metal Flange - Surface Mount # 37262155 fits a 1-1/2" diameter cutout while the RV City Water...

  • Will Using the Camco RV Gray-Water Drain Adapter Cause Odor To Get Into Trailer
  • I would love to help but I am a bit confused by your question. The Camco RV Gray-Water Drain Adapter part # CAM39322 is an adapter that allows you to drain your gray water tank at a dump station. This in itself would not stop odor from traveling though your waste hose, into the gray tank, and then into your trailer but that is why you have p-traps on all of your drains. If this does not answer your question please clarify this further for me so I can better assist you.
