Every dump station needs a reliable way for guests to rinse sewer hoses, wash down the dump pad, and clean up after use. A dedicated rinse station keeps your site sanitary, reduces odor, and prevents waste buildup around the dump area.
The Tower Company provides rinse-down water towers built specifically for dump station use at RV parks, campgrounds, truck stops, and public facilities. The Romort Water Tower Kit is used at thousands of dump stations across the country as both a rinse-down station and a potable water station, depending on the configuration and your facility’s needs.
After an RV guest empties their black and gray water tanks, the dump pad and surrounding area need to be rinsed clean. A rinse station provides a controlled water source for this purpose, keeping the site usable for the next guest.
A properly equipped rinse station eliminates the need for garden hoses at the dump site. Garden hoses create problems: they sit on the ground where waste spills, they get tangled and damaged, and they create trip hazards. A tower-mounted rinse system stays off the ground, stores itself when not in use, and provides better reach than a ground-level hose.
The Romort rinse-down tower reaches a 29-foot radius when in use, covering the full dump area without needing to be repositioned. The nozzle is always held off the ground, and the self-storing design means it retracts when not in use. No coiling hoses, no mess, no maintenance headaches.
Many facilities install two towers at their dump station: one for rinse-down (non-potable water) and one for potable water that guests can use to refill their freshwater tanks.
The Romort Water Tower Kit is available in both configurations. The key difference is signage and separation. A rinse-down tower should be clearly marked as non-potable water, and it should be physically separated from any potable water source per local codes. Both versions include the same vacuum breaker and backflow prevention to protect your water supply.
If you are only installing one tower, you need to decide based on your water source and local regulations whether it will serve as a potable water station, a rinse-down station, or both. Call us and we can help you figure out the right setup for your site.
Dump stations at busy campgrounds and truck stops can see dozens of uses per day. The Romort is built to handle that kind of volume.
The tower body, base, and internal components are designed for years of continuous outdoor service. The hose assemblies and nozzle are replaceable, so when parts wear out from heavy use, you swap them instead of replacing the whole unit. The self-storing design reduces wear by keeping the hose and nozzle off the ground between uses.
The Romort uses roughly 2.5 gallons of water per rinse cycle, compared to about 9 gallons with a standard garden hose setup. At a site with 50 daily uses, that is a difference of 325 gallons per day.
Whether you are adding a rinse station to an existing dump site or building a new facility from scratch, we can help you choose the right configuration. Call us at 1-800-945-1532 or email salestower@comcast.net.
