Grey tank issues
Hi everyone, hoping you can help us with some grey tank issues.
We have a 2020 21C and so far the trailer has been really great aside from the stove recall (which was just replaced, yay!) and some venting issues. We are getting some gurgling when the sink is draining. It seems to gurgle in the bathroom sink when we drain the kitchen sink. We are also having some issues with a grey water smell in our closet - the tall closet across from the sink. I also noticed that we were getting some air in the fresh water lines when running the cold water and the water pump. The pressure was fluctuating up and down. The hot water line didn't seem to have the same issue. I understand from the manual that this could be from hydrogen in the hot water line but I didn't think this could be the cause in the cold water line. At any rate it didn't get better after running for a while. Finally the tank levels don't seem to function correctly on the grey tank. We have the standard level system. I understand debris might cause this on the black tank, but is it more likely a faulty connection on the grey tank?
Here is what we have tried so far:
- making sure to fill up p traps in sink, bathroom sink and shower after travel
- using dawn soap and hot water to clean out the grey tank
- adding a small amount of tank treatment to grey tank
- checking the vent on the roof for nests or debris
- running a hose/water down the vent to see if there is a blockage
- inspecting the vent pipe in the closet for any obvious damage
As our trailer is still under warranty, I've also left a message for Dustin at Escape. We are off on our next trip on the 12th so would like to resolve beforehand if possible. Thanks for any suggestions!
