Have you filled your fresh water tank, driven out to your dry camping destination, and found you're almost out of fresh water?! If so, this video's for you!
I made this video to address a problem across Several RV Manufactures, that involves inadequate plumbing to break siphon when the fresh tank is full, resulting in a partial full fresh tank, and a lot of frustration. This situation has caused a headache on more than one occasion for us with getting out to a campsite while dry camping, and discovering that we only had about 2530% of our fresh water left, but we have a fix!
