@Seanm5253 . What I found works the best, even after renewing my drains, is to let the van drain into a bucket and have the hose come off the side of the bucket about 6 inches off the bottom. Just one of those 10 to 20 litre white plastic buckets that are used for paints etc. They are available from bunnings with a lid. I do plan to put a mesh filter in it something like a colander, just to stop bits of plastic and paper. So I run a short bit of hose thru the lid, I also have an over flow hole cut in the lid just in case the main drain blocks which can happen at some parks. I whipped one after 2 days into our last trip and it made a massive difference. Others here have done similar. Your drain has a camlock fitting which others have also done. It is probably better than the Jayco one. If you decide to stick with the camlock fitting, then you would need one for the outlet of the bucket. Just a thought, but that's what I have done.
If you have a look at my thread I have pics of the grey water tank I made, it is cleanable and there is no need for flow restricting S bends , it will also stop any backflush and as an added bonus when at those places where the drain is up hill it will allow drainage to operate and not back up into the shower and if you forget to turn the tap it will end up flowing out the breather before into the shower. (fully tested)
By taking the end cap off you can hose out the tank of the yucky goobers that dwell in there. A $8 10m drainage hose from Bunnings leads away from the van and a tap is fitted for those self contained places and stops the dust.
But if you want to keep the standard type drain just go to a hardware and buy the bits, cheaper than a Jayco shop.
