I have always had great results by putting in a cup of bleach with a full tank.
Let it set for a few days to let the bleach burn off. Then empty. Use 1/2 cup
of bleach with a full tank regular use. After the water tastes OK or a little
sweet. put in a cup of inexpensive Vodka. you wall not taste anything but will
notice the water is a little epervecent. I prefer the regular use of Vodka to
bleach

Subject: [Scoaa-members] Water Tank Cleaning
We are going on a long trip and will have to drink the water from the onboard
water tank. As we've only used this for showers and dish washing, I've never
worried about disinfecting, etc. I do use a potable water hose, and keep
things clean. But what do you recommend to clean it up to drinking water
standard? Some of the RV procedures call for a diluted bleach soak, then fill,
drain, refill. Is anything going to be harmed with diluted bleach?
Finally, has anyone measured how many gallons the SW 1000 tank actually
holds? I thought I read 80 gals in one place, and 106 gal in my owners manual.
Am interested in US gal capacity.
Thanks
Mike
