Thetford SmartTote Portable Waste Tanks

admin — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 05:00:43 +0000

The Thetford SmartTote Portable Waste tank has redefined the portable RV waste tank market. In the past RV waste tanks came incomplete and required hoses, wheel kits and handles to purchased separately. You never knew what you where going to get. The SmartTote waste tank is completely self-contained so there are no added accessories to buy or parts to store and possible get lost. And as an added bonus each SmartTote model has up to 20% more capacity than competitive models for fewer trips to the dump station.

Other great SmartTote portable waste tank features include:

PermaStore™
- Self storing sewer hose stays connected at bottom of tank
- Cradle pivots, hose extends for quick, clean hookup
- Bayonet cap prevents spills; just pull out, connect to fill or empty
AutoStop™
- Level Gauge/Valve stops flow when tank is full to prevent messy over-filling!
No heavy lifting – use the convenient, included tow handle (on LX models) to easily pull your SmartTote from RV to evacuation.

Thetford’s Sani-Con Waste Management System

Finally a way to empty your holding tanks (unquestionably the most distasteful job in RVing) that everyone in the family will find easy to use.
Thetford’s Sani-Con System does not rely on gravity. Utilizing a heavy-duty transfer and macerating pump, the unit works much like a household garbage disposal … it grinds and liquefies black water waste*, then pumps it through an extra heavy duty 1” diameter discharge hose.

The powerful macerating pump can pump waste UP terrain, UP into a backyard sewer cleanout, UP into a household toilet, UP into an elevated sewer dump station, etc. No need for a constant slope or cumbersome hose supports. That means less handling and an easier method to empty the tanks.

Sani-Con features a long-lasting 1” discharge hose that stretches up to 21 feet, than retracts to a convenient 7 feet to save storage space — more than 80%!!

At the end of the hose is an easy-to-use threaded nozzle that is designed to fit securely (lock) into a variety of dump station inlets, keeping you clean and ending the need for additional adaptors.

The nozzle has a screw on cap that really keeps the entire operation easy and clean. The cap prevents drips and spills during storage, making the unit more sanitary and less odorous than the old style 3″ diameter sewer hoses.

Available in both the “ready to dump when you are” permanently installed (hard wired to the coach) model and portable (Twist-On and Tank Buddy) models.

*human waste, liquids and toilet tissue ONLY.

To use the system:

Connect the macerating pump (Twist-On and Tank Buddy only)
Extend and insert the nozzle into the dump station
Open the black water slide valve
Turn on the Sani-Con pump
When the black water tank is empty, turn off the pump, close the black water slide valve, open the grey water slide valve, and turn the pump back on
When the gray water tank is empty, turn off the pump, close the gray water slide valve, put the screw on cap onto the nozzle and return the nozzle and hose to storage
