Default Holding Tank Clogged Up

Everything was working fine until I used the washing machine and now I cant get the holding tank to drain. The washer must have broken stuff loose in tank? Wash cycle worked fine then it fill my shower up and took all night to drain out.

Hi Gary,

Are you sure the drain valve is opening up all the way? You may need to remove the valve and associated piping, to try and determine if the clog is right there (at the drain valve) or higher up. If you remove some of those plumbing angles, maybe you can see up into the piping/tank and determine the source of the clog.

Thats really "looking for trouble"
Try the curb side dump. Both cannot be broken.
