34 Gallon RV Water Tank Ameri Kart Black/Gray Leak Proof Waste Tank

Description

Product Overview

The Ameri‑Kart 34 gallon RV water tank is engineered to meet the demanding needs of mobile living. Crafted from high‑impact, weather‑resistant polymer, the tank delivers a robust, leak‑proof solution for both black and gray waste streams. Its dimensions of 63 × 24 × 8 inches provide ample capacity while fitting comfortably within most RV chassis and motorhome floor plans. The tank includes a 3‑inch end‑discharge outlet, allowing for straightforward connection to dump stations or external waste management systems. All components are manufactured in the United States, adhering to QAI Laboratories certification standards, which guarantees consistent quality and durability. The design incorporates reinforced ribs and a seamless interior surface to prevent corrosion and reduce the risk of leaks over years of use. With a weight of just 22.5 lb, the tank is lightweight enough for easy handling yet sturdy enough to withstand the vibrations and impacts of road travel.

Usage

This tank is ideal for a wide range of recreational vehicles, including Class A and Class C motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth‑wheel RVs. It serves as the primary repository for waste generated by toilets, sinks, and showers, making it essential for off‑grid camping, long‑distance road trips, and weekend getaways. The leak‑proof construction ensures that waste remains contained, protecting both the vehicle interior and the environment. Users can install the tank in a variety of configurations, whether mounted under a floor, within a dedicated compartment, or positioned alongside other utility tanks. The versatile inlet and vent locations allow owners to customize the plumbing layout to suit their specific floor plans, ensuring optimal flow and venting. Because the tank is designed for both black and gray water, it simplifies waste management by consolidating multiple waste streams into a single, easy‑to‑service unit.

Installation

Installation is streamlined thanks to the pre‑drilled 3‑inch end‑discharge port. Begin by selecting a location that meets the manufacturer’s clearance requirements and provides easy access for dumping. Drill matching holes for the inlet and vent fittings based on your RV’s plumbing diagram. Secure the tank using the provided mounting brackets or custom brackets that fit your vehicle’s frame. Connect the inlet hose to the tank’s interior port, ensuring a tight seal to prevent leaks. Attach the vent hose to the vent opening, routing it to a venting point that allows gases to escape safely. Finally, connect the discharge outlet to your dump hose or external waste system. The entire process can be completed with standard hand tools, and most installers finish the job within a few hours.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance extends the life of the tank and keeps waste handling efficient. After each dump, rinse the interior with fresh water to remove residual solids and prevent buildup. Periodically inspect the inlet, vent, and discharge fittings for signs of wear or corrosion, tightening any loose connections. Use only approved RV waste chemicals to break down solids and control odors; avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the tank’s polymer. The tank should never be pressurized; always ensure the vent is open during use to allow gases to escape. For long‑term storage, empty the tank completely, dry the interior, and store the unit in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight.

Compatibility

The 34 gallon model is compatible with a broad range of RV brands and floor plans. Its standard 3‑inch discharge fits most dump stations and hose adapters sold in the RV market. The tank’s dimensions align with common RV waste tank bays, making it a drop‑in replacement for older or damaged units. When paired with compatible inlet and vent kits, the tank can be integrated into existing plumbing without extensive modifications. Additionally, the tank’s robust construction makes it suitable for both permanent installations and temporary setups for seasonal travelers who may need to relocate their waste system between trips.

FAQ

What type of waste can I store in this tank?

The tank is designed for both black water (toilet waste) and gray water (sink and shower waste). It can hold solid and liquid waste, but you must vent the tank during use to allow gases to escape safely.

Do I need to purchase additional fittings for installation?

No. The tank includes a pre‑drilled 3‑inch end‑discharge port, but inlet, vent, and mounting hardware are sold separately. Choose fittings that match your RV’s plumbing layout for a seamless installation.

Can I use chemical additives in this tank?

Yes, you can use RV‑approved waste treatment chemicals to break down solids and control odors. Avoid harsh industrial cleaners, as they may degrade the tank’s polymer material over time.

How do I know when the tank is full?

Most RVs are equipped with a waste‑level sensor that alerts you when the tank reaches capacity. If your vehicle lacks a sensor, visually inspect the tank’s exterior for bulging or use a dip‑stick method to gauge the fill level.

Is the tank covered by a warranty?

Ameri‑Kart provides a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects for a specified period. Contact our customer service team with your purchase details for warranty verification and support.
