About Us

The manufacturer installed flushing sprayers usually have three fixed position spray ports. While they discharge a good amount of water they miss areas to flush out and material can build up in those areas over time - reducing your tank's holding capacity.

Much the same is true for the wand style sprayers sent down to the tank through the toilet. While these units have some utility they do not have the pressure required to clean out a tank.

At Cherry RV Tank Service we use a hydro-jetter with 1500psi to service the inside of your tank, removing buildup and struvite.

Struvite is a type of mineral that can form in the urinary tract of both humans and animals. It is composed of magnesium, ammonium, and phosphate - yep, it's kidney stones. In a black tank, struvite buildup can occur when urine and feces mix with hard water and form a solid mass. This buildup can clog the holding tanks and cause odors and backups.

Gray tanks can often be as nasty (and smell as bad) as the black tanks. Fats, oils, and greases can coagulate on the walls with skin cells and food particles globbling on and creating havoc with your sensors and / or providing a medium for the growth of mold.

It depends. If you have just a macerating toilet where the macerator is at the toilet and above the tank, we can service your tanks.

If your macerator is at the output valve we cannot service your tanks as trying to feed the hose through the macerator would damage our hose and / or your macerator.

Having us hydro-jet your tanks brings your gray and black tanks to a "near-new" condition, addresses odor and sensor problems, and provides you the opportunity to start a new chemical-free relationship with your tanks.

Hydro-jetting almost always resolves odor issues originating from the tanks. Likewise, mis-reading sensors almost always return to normal operation after our service. That said, sometimes there are other issues going on with the sensors that cause them to report incorrect readings that tank servicing cannot address.

We are full-timers. We use RV Digest-It by Unique and water kefir in our black tank, and in the gray tank when we boondock (if we are at a site with FHU we usually don't treat the gray tank as we're dumping it pretty frequently). We've found this mix of bacterias, enzymes, yeasts, and probiotics - in combination with the water softener - keeps our black tank fluid and odor-free.
