However, I have one question, that through my research of past posts, I have been unable to answer. Why does Trailmanor use a reciuculating toilet instead of the tradition RV toilet with a separate blackwater tank installed beneath the trailer?
A 20 or 30 gallon black water tank weighs a lot. One member a few weeks ago was discussing adding a 4 inch diameter black PVC pipe underneath to create a temporary holding capacity for a long-duration dry camping. He saw the idea on the marine side, as I recall.
