Question:
I have a manual dump on our gray water tank. I want to have an electronic push of a button release. So if we are somewhere that we can dump the grey water safely, I dont have to crawl under the motorhome to dump it. I see the gate valves that are cable activated, but this is not what I am looking for. Thank you.

If you're wanting to have an electronically controlled valve for just the gray tank then you can use the Valterra EZ Valve Electric Waste Valve for RV Black Water Tank - 3" Hub to 3" Hub # E40B-8 along with a reducer # T1041-1 to make the connection between the valve and gray water pipe. There currently are no electronically controlled valves with a 1-1/2" opening so you'll have to use a black water tank valve to accomplish this.
You could also use the Valterra EZ Valve Double Electric Waste Valves - Rotating - (2) 3" Hubs to 3" Lug Fitting # E84-8 along with the # T1041-1 to electronically control both the black and gray water tanks.
You'll also need to use some Valterra ABS Solvent Cement - 1/4 Pint # A05-0303 to securely conjoin each part.
