So now we can either shut off the external
drain valve and store the grey water, or leave
it open and connect an external waste pipe as
we all do in van parks to waste drains. Not
only is the wastewater load itself now spread
over the entire van chassis as it is stored, but
the whole system is higher, less obtrusive, and
holds far more water than any tank in one
location.
Layout of the parts Norm used for the system.
We can simply remove each of the 150
screwed ends and flush the whole system out
when we get home. I have since purchased
another new van and intend to fit the same
waste water system.
As you can see the from pictures, it’s mounted
higher than the previous system and holds
more than the 85L originally planned.

RAISING THE CURTAIN
Our Jayco Outback’s bathroom is quite small
as the washing machine takes up what space
is available. I addressed the issue of bathroom
space and privacy by adding a new curtain
track from Ikea ($15) and a new shower
curtain ($9) and fixed it to the cabin walls to
create a large, private space for changing
after a shower.

VERTICAL STORAGE
We use a vertical clothes organiser to hold
shorts, tee-shirts, etc., and we use elastic
bands on the coat-hangers around the rail.
Nothing ever falls off in transit.
