Replacement for Holding Tank Monitoring System

We've read many threads about cleaning tank sensors. We're done with cleaning our 2015 Fuzion tank sensors using various remedies for the sensors. Nothing works consistently and we're ready for an alternative to monitoring the levels of our our black, two greys, and freshwater tanks.

Anyone have luck with a replacement monitoring system? Any help appreciated.

There are other systems out there. See level is one that is popular.

Really? Just use common sense on what the levels are and when to dump. No sensors work all of the time.
For example, if 2 people, the black water try two weeks if full time. Kitchen grey water and shower water will depend on how many showers you take....


It will be trial and error but you'll figure it out. The tanks will tell you.

I installed a SeeLevel system. Works great! When attaching sensor to the tank, place top sensor towards top of tank.

For decades we never had any "tank monitors" and all was good. This one came with them and we thought, that's really going to be neat. As you, we found that they are just a pain in the tail and not worth the effort to mess with.

The size of your family, size of the tanks and your personal usage will dictate how quickly the black or gray tanks fill. They will also tell you when it's time to dump without worrying about some ineffective, inaccurate "sensor". Get to know your trailer and I think you will find that going to the trouble and expense of a different kind of tank sensor is just wasted.
