Waste Water Tank Used for Human Waste or Gray Water - DO NOT use for fresh or drinking water
Non-pressurized Tank all tanks we carry must be vented (allow air in/out during use), Plumbing Example
Waste Or Gray Water Use great for rvs, food vendors, tiny houses, overlanding and extra waste water storage
Seamless One-piece seamless construction, no seams to burst Average tank thickness: .219 or 7/32" thick (just under 1/4")
Resistant Stain, Corrosion and Rust Resistant
Color Black in color so tank is easily identified as a waste tank
Made With Recycled Medium Density Polyethylene (MDPE) Resin - glues do not stick to this material and easily cleaned. - Because product is recycled and intended for waste use it is not tested for safety of drinking or gardening water supply.
Installed Outlet Options
3” ABS Female Pipe - outlet can not be moved
1.5" ABS Female Pipe - outlet can not be moved - Due to the smaller outlet this tank is for dirty water from shower, handwashing, dish-washing - DO NOT use for human waste
Inlet & Vent Class A Customs Waste Water Tanks only come with the outlet the end user will determine where the inlet and vent will need to be placed and install.
Overall Measurements - See Photos
33" x 25.5" x 17.25" (at largest point - see CAD Drawing)
1.5" ABS Female Pipe - outlet can not be moved - Due to the smaller outlet this tank is for dirty water from shower, handwashing, dish-washing - DO NOT use for human waste
Connecting Pipe & Dump Valve
From the ABS outlet that is installed in the tank run PVC Pipe or ABS Pipe to the outside of the trailer, a dump valve is added to the piping.
Pipe is connected to the ABS installed fitting in the tank with glue. You do not need to tighten the clamp that is on the ABS Fitting, this is used when the ABS fitting is installed into the tank and does not help secure your piping, over-tightening this clamp will damage ABS fitting and tank
Dump Valves
Dump Valves do not hook directly to the ABS fittings, the ABS Outlets are female fittings and the dump valves are also female fittings, you will need a pipe to fit inside of the outlet and dump valve in order to make the connection.
Class A Customs Waste Water Tanks only come with the ABS outlet installed, the end user will determine where the inlet and vent will need to be placed and install.
Grommets are not food safe so can only be used for Gray or Waste Water use they are available in sizes 1.5" and 3", no adhesives are needed for use.
Uniseal Fittings are food safe and can be used for Fresh, Gray, or Waste Water use, they are available in size .5" to 3", no adhesives are needed for use.
Use correct size hole saw bit in order to drill a hole in the tank, smooth tank edges, and place Grommet or Uniseal in hole. Piping is then placed into fitting with no glues or adhesives necessary.
Mounting & Bracing
Some of the Class A Customs Waste Water Tanks are built with a "lip" on the tank. Tanks can be hung by this lip, it is recommended to make a shelf to slide the tank lip into.
You will need to brace the tank on all sides to prevent movement of the tank.
Brackets or Strap Systems Due to the variety of installations we do not carry brackets or bracing systems. Do Not hang by ratchet strap, this is too thin and will not adequately support tank.
Water Tank Monitor System
RV Monitor Panels allow you to monitor the amount of fluid in your water and waste tanks along with the battery power level. Typically only one monitor panel (2 tank or 3 tank) is needed per vehicle/unit and 4 Probes per tank.
To check fluid levels, press and hold the button designated for the tank and read the level indicators on the panel. Sometimes, residue on the sides of a tank, or water with a low mineral content will give a false reading.
Check the levels occasionally when you are sure of a tank’s contents and compare it to the reading on the monitor panel.
3/8" drill bit needed Measure and mark installation points before drilling. After drilling be sure to remove any burs from hole. Do not over-tighten probes.
Tank harnesses included with monitor panel. Customer will need to provide the extra wiring to run from the tank harness to the monitor panel. View wiring diagram for wire gauges ( 20 AWG / 14 AWG)
NO NSF LOGO Class A Customs NSF Letter (on Water Tank Helps Page) explaining why we no longer have the NSF Logo in our tanks, however, Class A Customs Fresh/Gray Water Tanks are still made from the same NSF Approved Materials.
Forward this letter onto your inspecting Health Department before ordering to be sure tanks will work for your application and get approval.

OEM Part
No retail box - no install instructions
Have a certified technician install all parts to prevent product damage and personal injury
Helpful information & answers to common questions can be found on the Water Tank Helps Page
Additional Fittings
To install additional fittings anywhere on the tank we recommend Uniseal Fittings, you can have from .5" up-to 3"
We do not take orders for custom fitting placements or sizes unless bulk ordering, 100 or more of each tank per order.
Preparation Sanitize each tank prior to use to remove any debris from the manufacturing process
Tanks are made in a warehouse, wipe with a damp cloth to remove surface dust or scuffs
Installation & Plumbing Non-Pressurized Tank all tanks we carry must be vented allowing air in and out when in use, Plumbing Examples Do Not hook a garden hose directly to tank damage will occur, it is recommended to use a fill dish or other gravity process Do Not over-tighten fittings as damage will occur.
It is recommended to use plastic NPT male fittings with plastic female NPT fittings to avoid damaging the threads, metal thread fittings can crush the plastic threads. Very little, if any, pipe thread tape is needed using too much pipe tape will damage the threads. We do not recommend pipe dope as you can not remove the fitting later, if used be sure to use a food safe brand.
What fittings will I need for my plumbing?
This will depend on how you are setting-up your tank and will vary by application, we are not aware of what items you will be needing, please view the Plumbing Examples
Mounting & Bracing Tank can be placed on any side. Place tank on level surface and brace to prevent tank from moving during transit. Tank needs to be adequately supported, examples on the Water Tank Helps Page Do Not hang by ratchet straps, this is too thin and will not adequately support tank. Do Not place weight on tank, if you need to stack the tanks you will need a weight bearing shelf between them.
Can I install the tank under the trailer? Tanks can be installed inside or outside of unit, for food vendors verify requirements before purchasing as some areas do not allow tanks to be outside of the unit and others do not allow the tank to be inside of the unit. Be sure to Sanitize Tank before installing.
All tanks must be braced and secured to prevent any movement of the tank while in transit and to prevent possibility of tank tipping or falling. Due to the manufacturing process all the tanks especially the larger in size will have a bowing to the walls, when the tank is filled the tank will expand out removing the inward bow, we recommend laying all tanks on a level surface (this can be angled to help with drainage) and bracing the tanks. For larger tanks it is recommended to brace all side walls with plywood or metal, we do not recommend using ratchet straps on the tanks alone as this is a large amount of weight on a thin strip and may cause cutting into the tank. For tanks placed outside it is also recommend to enclose tanks using sheet metal / plywood or some other type of weather proof material to prevent damage from road debris and speed bumps, be sure to check your clearance before ordering.
Brackets or Strap Systems Due to the variety of installations we do not carry brackets or bracing systems.
Before you build or modify unit, you need to verify rules and regulations. Codes vary by local health departments, not state.
We are not aware of the codes or rules. We are not aware of what tanks or items you need.
Ask your inspector BEFORE purchasing
Size Requirements (Gallons / Measurements / Fresh to Gray ratio)
Does the bottom need to be slanted? Can I place the tank on a slanted surface as this would make the tank then slanted?
Fittings Requirements (Size / Placement / Materials) Filling Procedure Requirements (Lockable Fill Dish / Materials) Tank Placement Requirements (Inside / Outside of unit)
Clean Out Requirements Do I need a clean out? What size does this need to be?
Class A Customs Tanks have NO NSF LOGO - read below for why
Water Tank Percent Calculation Examples Multiply (fresh tank size) x 1.15 (1 . 15%) = Tank needed 30 x 1.15 (15%) = 34.50 30 x 1.50 (50%) = 4
NO NSF Logo Tanks no longer have the NSF logo molded into them due to changes NSF made regarding the use of the NSF logo. The NSF Company does not allow for end users to use the NSF logo unless each item has been inspected and a certification paid for each item, the material that all of our tanks are made from are still the same NSF Certified Material, adding this extra step of certification is an unnecessary step but generates revenues.
The NSF Company does not allow vendors/manufacturers to link to the NSF paperwork unless verified NSF products are being used, our company has been verified and therefore is allowed to link to the NSF Certified Materials on the NSF Website. If needed your inspector can check on this regarding our company and website as we have already provided this information to the NSF company and have been advised on how to correctly use/link to the certification information on our website.
What does my inspector need when I go to inspections on the tanks? Class A Customs NSF Letter (on Water Tank Helps Page) Receipt of Purchase All tanks have the part number molded into the tank, inspector can verify tank.
Custom Water Tanks
We can make a custom tank however due to the cost of a mold ($8,500 and up) most customers needing only a few tanks find it better to use a tank we already manufacture. For more information and a quote on custom tanks please fill-out our Water Tank Build Form.
