Reliable RV Water Holding Tanks from RecPro
RecPro partners with Elkhart Plastics Inc., a leading manufacturer of high-quality RV water tanks, to develop and manufacture tanks using cutting-edge rotationally molded tanks (also known as rotomolded). These tanks are built to strict OEM standards and undergo rigorous pressure testing to ensure durability and leak-free construction.
What makes a RecPro tank even better is that each of our recreational vehicle water tanks is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and 100% BPA-free, making our tanks perfect for safe potable water storage and transportation on the road.
What we offer
RecPro is proud to offer any kind of recreational vehicle water tank you may need. Our selection of water holding tanks includes:
Clean tanks that are BPA free, used for storing potable water used for drinking, cooking, and cleaning. These tanks are a vital component for any RV, food truck, concession stand, travel trailer, fifth wheel trailer, or small home!
Our RV fresh water tanks are available in sizes ranging from smaller 5 gallon tanks to big 100 gallon tanks and larger, allowing you to safely hold a variety of different water capacities. The RV freshwater tanks here at RecPro are 100% BPA free and certified by the NSF, making them perfectly safe for storing fresh drinking water. RecPro RV fresh water tanks are perfect for replacing the standard tank in your RV, or for using as a backup in case your primary holding tank fails.
These fresh water tanks are strong, durable, and securely built with a seamless construction so you won’t have to worry about wear and tear or leaks. We also offer a universal fittings kit for our RV fresh water tanks, which is designed with a self-sealing grommet system to make installation quick and easy. Speaking of easy, our freshwater tanks feature four large fill ports, making them easy to use and easy to fill.
Large tanks used to collect waste water from sources such as sinks and showers. Keeps your waste water contained and keeps you compliant with campground rules!
Not all RVs come equipped with a gray water tank, but it is a great idea to add one to your rig as they will help reduce how quickly your black water tank fills up. It is required by law for food trucks and other vehicles or trailers serving the public to be equipped with one gray water tank for every fresh water tank on the vehicle.
Strong, durable, sealed tanks used to collect solid waste and wastewater from sources such as your toilet. Built with outstanding durability to offer long-lasting use without fail.
Your black water tanks are as vital a component to your rig as the RV fresh water tanks. These tanks hold all the yucky stuff you’d rather not think about after using the toilet, so they need to be big, strong, and durable. The black water holding tanks here at RecPro fit that criteria nicely, and we offer black waste water tanks in standard stock sizes as well as a variety of customized sizes.
Our RV waste tanks primarily come with a blank body and a 3” expulsion port for easy dumping, but you can add different sensors and ports to customize the tank to your needs. We also offer a universal fittings kit to help you create the black water holding system you need and to make installation easier.
RecPro also offers a wide range of RV water tank accessories to make your installation easy and help you craft the perfect custom RV water system:
Why Does BPA in a Water Tank Matter?
No one wants to cook with, clean with, or drink water that isn’t safe. Bisphenol A, otherwise known as BPA, is a harmful chemical often used in plastics manufacturing that can leach into drinking water. RecPro RV water tanks are 100% BPA-free, meaning you can have peace of mind knowing a RecPro water tank will help protect your health.

RV Water Tanks FAQ
Q: Is it safe to drink water from an RV Tank?
A: You should only drink water from the Freshwater tank of an RV. Before doing so, ensure that the water tank is BPA-free and has been well maintained. Do not drink water from a freshwater tank that is dirty, contains BPA, or is damaged. NEVER drink water from the gray water tank or black water tank of an RV.
Q: What is a good size water tank for an RV?
A: For full-time RV living, you should have a minimum of a 20-gallon fresh water tank and a 10 to 15-gallon gray and blackwater tank. It is highly recommended that you choose larger tanks if your budget and the space on your rig allow, as larger tanks will require less maintenance and fewer refills/dumps.
Q: How often should I dump my Gray/Black water tank?
A: It is considered good practice to dump your gray and/or black water holding tank every 3 to 5 days or when the holding tank is about two-thirds full. Additionally, all tanks should be emptied and cleaned at the end of every trip, as doing so will help prevent odors from building up or other tank issues from occurring. Read our blog article for more information on when and how to dump your black water tank.
Q: Can I use bleach to clean my RV black water tank?
A: It is not recommended to use bleach or other harsh cleaning chemicals to clean or sanitize your black water tank. Bleach is a corrosive chemical that can damage rubber seals and valves on your black tank system, which can cause leaks to occur. Additionally, bleach and other strong cleaning chemicals can kill off the beneficial bacteria inside your black water tank that help break down solid waste materials. You should only use cleaners or tank treatments designed specifically for recreational vehicle black water tanks. Read our blog for more information about what you can put in your gray and black water tanks.
Q: Can I store my RV water tank while it is full?
A: For long-term storage, you should not store your RV while any of the water tanks are full, as doing so can lead to potential bacterial growth or unpleasant odors. For storing your RV during the winter, you will need to take a few extra steps to winterize your water tanks, which can include fully draining them and/or adding antifreeze to them.
