Default Waste tank flushing?

Has anyone used any of the waste tank flushing/maintenance accessories such as: Tornado Rotary Tank Rinser or Dual Flush Pro/Flush King/Hydro Flush holding tank reverse flusher with any success? While emptying my tanks at Doran Beach the RV in line ahead of me used a Hydro Flush reverse flusher and he loved it, and preferred it to the Tank Wand ... makes me want to buy one too. This video YouTube - RV Tank Cleaning Video by RV Education I also found this "Sewer Solution" on YouTube YouTube - Sewer Solution which looks promising.

John, Looks like a good idea if your tanks are mounted in the rear of your trailer. If your tanks are mounted midship like mine, I don't see how the tanks can be flushed properly by shooting water up the longer drain lines. Several years ago I installed a flush nozzle into my black and gray water tanks. The water lines run to a brass "y" by my dump valves. By opening either lever on the "y" I can flush the tanks one at a time. It is a single hose hookup. I used a hole saw to make the hole for the nozzles across from the tank sensors hoping they would get rinsed off also. Hope this helps you decide which way to go.

Bob
