Drainmaster Fix

I have been struggling with the Drainmaster setup on my coach. It was impossible to connect the camlock and have the sewer hose run through the hole in the floor of the wet. Thus the wet bay door could not be closed while the Drainmaster was connected. Therefor the Drainmaster had to uninstalled every time the gray tank was drained.

So I cut the floor out and enlarged the hole so the plumbing could be rotated mostly straight down to accommodate the Drainmaster cam lock from under the bay. Now I can leave the gray tank valve open and keep the door closed.

I also made a filler plate to cover the larger hole so when traveling it is sealed up from road grime. I am going to make another cover that will enclose the drain plumbing while stationary to keep any unwanted critters from finding their way in the wet bay.

Thanks to Neal C the next project will be to add electric wastegates so the valves are never left open except to dump. I may do as Charlie did and make them wireless too. We'll see how energetic I get.

I’m currently planning to have NEWMAR add another rain as close to the water hose and to the door. I plan to get the hose up the new outlet then turn to the same connection in the picture.
