The cap for the drain was a little too far under the pod for the Mrs. Paw Pod to reach, so I made a pvc pipe setup to extend the drain closer to the street. I say it is an experiment because right now with the camper level, the 90 makes it look like the pipe is running uphill. I believe it will drain ok once on the road, so I will just have to see.


The original drain point located up under the pod.


The new extension installed, I made it about the same level as the waste tank drain valve.


Anyway, not an earth-shaking mod, just something to make accessing the fresh water drain a little easier. Total cost was $4 for pvc materials, plus the cement.
