Re: [VAL] waste tank valves



Hi Dean,

Have you ever held your thumb over the end of a garden hose to have a small
single high pressure stream come out the end?  Do you know how a gas
carbuerator works with it's Venturi principle?

The Venturi Principle is a law of physics that in short says that you can
have high pressure and low volume OR you can have high volume and low
pressure.  One thing you can't have is both at the same time - it just won't
work.

Firehoses have extrememly high pressure in low volume so that they can get
maximum distance quickly.  The same principle applies with the Sewer
Solution. There has to be a website explaning the in's and out's of this
product where you can 'see' why it works and how well it works.

Over the years just the savings in being able to use Charmin versus Marine
Toilet paper would put a big dent in the original purchase price in my
opinion.
