Article Summary

If you are on shift and need to empty your tank immediately, you can manually drain the waste without using the waste pump by plugging a hose into the ball valve. Note: Sometimes an adapter will be located in the passenger door or their equipment box to slot into manual drain first. Laundry Vans will often leave their adapter in place in the back of the van. 

Where are the valves located? 

Shower Van: Underneath the van on the passengers side - twist the blue lever 90º to begin water flow. Note: This valve is hidden right underneath the van so you may need to get on your hands and knees to find it. Location displayed in photo in blue below

Hybrid Van: In a similar location to the Shower Van yet a bit further back near the wheel arch. Twist the blue lever 90º to begin water flow. Note: This valve is hidden right underneath the van so you may need to get on your hands and knees to find it. Location displayed in photo in green below

Remote Van: At the front drivers side of the van, twist the blue lever 90º to begin water flow.

Laundry Van: Connected to the tank at the rear of the van, twist the blue lever 90º to begin water flow.
