Need to take a dump. my flo jet macerater won't fit my sewer bracket.

The flo jet is made to go on a 3.5" outlet. Mine appears to be 3.75". The previous owner added a 3d valve in case the grey or black valve failed. Not sure if he changed the diameter of the bracket or not.  Do I have the normal fitting. Where can I get a 3.75"  to a 3.5" fitting? Thanks

You need an adapter. The original Thetford fitting is a bit bigger than the more common Valterra size. Amazon has them.  Likely any Camping World too.

Depends on how the 3rd valve was done.  Can you post a photo of your dump outlet?

FYI if white, it's likely Thetford, which is not common on most RVs.  That was the OEM outlet on FTs (and I think Prevosts) and there is an adapter available.  Usually when folks add a third valve, though, they convert the dump outlet to Valterra in part for this compatibility issue, so that's why a photo would help.

It's white. I'll post a photo tomorrow. I ordered the Thetford adapter posted above. Hopefully it'll work. Thanks for posting the link. Regrettably it's time to winterize.
