You worry too much. Go for it. What's the worst that can happen? the head could blow up and my wife, well, she would too! Blow up, you say? yeah. you suck a vacuum on a container not designed for it...and then backfill it with water...the results would be unpleasant If you plan to do that, you deserve to have it blow up in your face. you ARE aware a pump out station applies a vacuum, right? Is there a working vent in the holding tank? If you play your cards right, the only vacuum applied to your system will be in the suction hose that connects to the deck plate. I'm not sure what you mean by backfill. You don't mean rinse, do you? yep. the rinse...if it's too forcefull it could overpressurize the system and either damage it or overflow the tank. |
