Selected User Reviews For Valterra T1003VP Waste Valve - 3 Inch, Black (Quantity 1)
I received the item in a timely manner, with all of the necessary attachment parts included in the package, which I consider to be a positive. However, I discovered that water dribbles after installation. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a repurposed valve that was given to me. Despite the fact that it is fully closed, it does not completely seal at shutoff. I installed it correctly, so I guess that's how things are done nowadays.
My leaks are no longer a problem because of this product. The installation was simple, but a second person was required to keep the pipes far enough apart so that the gaskets could be properly seated.
It took less time to install than anticipated. You could probably get away with just replacing the gaskets, but the new ones are so smooth! For the gray tank, I wish they had a gray handle. It's possible that it will need to be painted.
When I go to dump the tank, I don't have to worry about poop water splashing me!.
The most difficult part was removing the old valve, and it will be again when it comes time to replace this one because the screws are not stainless steel and will rust. The actual installation went smoothly. The new valve hasn't sprung a leak so far. Needless to say, if it does begin, I will revise my rating and deduct some stars.
On my travel trailer, it fit perfectly and was simple to install.
The setup is simple. Everything now works as it should.
This is a fantastic substitute. It's not too difficult to set up.
