What is a GREY tank on a camper?

The Grey Tank The RV gray tank holds waste water from every source other than that is not the toilet, which includes your kitchen sink and bathroom/lavy sink. Soapy water, toothpaste, dust and dirt from your afternoon hike, or anything else you rinse down the sink drain ends up in the gray tank.

Is the galley tank just from the kitchen sink?

Im guessing the galley tank is just from the kitchen sink. Yes? The bathroom sink and shower, I am fairly sure, drain into the grey water tank. And of course, the obvious drain into the black.

How often do you empty the galley tank?

Since we have a washer, that is easy since one load and one day of dish washing and showers will get us to a half full grey tank. We then dump black, a bit of black tank flushing and then dump the grey tank. When sitting still that is about every 10 days with our small, 35 gallon, black tank.

When do you close the Grey tank in an RV?

In our old RV, without a washer, we closed the grey tank about 4 days before black tank dumping day. You have to figure this out for your tanks and water usage, your number of days could be very different than ours.

Why do I leave the galley valve open?

I leave the galley valve open so that the grey water runs freely, just like I do the grey water from the bathroom. This saves you from having to deal with two 3″ sewer hoses or switching the sewer hose from the bathroom to the galley.
