I have a clear elbow I connect to my drain so I can see when the blank tank is truly clean.

We also add Calgon Water Softener to the black tank after flushing as well as a tablet. The Calgon keeps the water very “slippery” to help keep anything from sticking to the tank walls.
Thanks Judge, just got our new SV34 and when I dumped for the 1st time I didn't notice anything coming out of the black tank once it had emptied and the hose was connected and running-maybe it just needed to run longer? Not sure what type of rinse fitting Thor uses on the Magnitudes. On another note, did you find an easier way to drain & fill/replace filter etc. without taking the bed apart each time?
