How long should holding tanks be allowed to flush?

The recommended time for holding tanks to flush is 30 minutes. This duration is established to ensure that the contents of the holding tank are effectively and thoroughly flushed out. Flushing for 30 minutes allows enough time for the waste to be properly diluted and carried away, reducing the risk of residual buildup and potential odors. This practice is particularly important in maintaining the cleanliness and efficiency of the system, as well as preventing clogs or malfunctions in the plumbing or sewage treatment processes. By adhering to this time frame, one ensures compliance with best management practices in waste disposal.
