Re: Sanitizing fresh water tank Reply #25 – September 30, 2010, 11:07:26 pm Quote from: Peter & Beth – September 30, 2010, 01:23:49 pmThe hose approach works. I'm not familiar with your water set up, but make sure the hose in installed to the coach intake, make sure the valve is in position to go to the freah water tank, pour chlorine into female end of hose (at spigot end), connect to water spigot, and fill the tank. Open all faucets after tank is full to fill the lines with chlorinated water. Allow to sit for at least 3 hours, dump water, refill tank. If you want add a couple tablespoons of baking soda (same method as the chlorine) to the new fresh water and that will remove any chlorine taste (although if you use a kitchen filter [ADC?] it will remove the chlorine taste as well.Thanks for the help, I'll give it a try.

Re: Sanitizing fresh water tank Reply #26 – October 01, 2010, 08:53:17 am Since I use city water from the house I don't sanitize the tank. There is enough chlorine in the water to keep the system in good shape. Only on rare occasions have I had to fill at a well that was not chlorinated and since this was a short term thing I did not bother. I ALWAYS use water from the tank and avoid using CG water if at all possible, this gives me assurance that I know what water pressure I have from my pump and also a known water supply. At the end of each trip I dump remaining water and open faucets to clear out piping . If I was full timing I might look at this differently. Quote Selected
