4. Drain the sink by removing the drain cap.
5. Turn ON the water pump and allow it to
run as needed.
6. Open all faucets, including the outside
shower faucet.
7. Make sure the “water heater bypass”
valve is open.
8. Relieve the water pressure using the
water heater P&T valve BEFORE
removing the water heater drain plug.
Otherwise, if there is any water pressure
present the water will spray out of the
opening when the drain plug is removed.
When you are finished draining the fresh
water system, reverse these steps and, dump
the grey and black water holding tanks at an
appropriate facility or according to local public
codes.
It is normal for some liquid to remain in the
fresh water tank after drainage procedure.

When to sanitize
When your RV is new.
At the beginning and end of each season.
When the water system becomes
contaminated or every three months of
use.
How to sanitize with a water pump
1. Level the RV and drain the fresh water
system. (see
Draining the fresh water
system
).
2. Close the drain valves.
3. Prepare a chlorine solution using 1/4 cup
of household bleach (sodium hypochlorite
solution) to one gallon (3.785 liters) of
water in a container. Prepare one gallon of
solution for every 15 gallons of tank
capacity. This will result in a residual
chlorine concentration of 50 ppm in the
water system. If a 100-ppm concentration
is required as discussed in step 10, use ½
cup of household bleach with one gallon
of water to prepare the chlorine solution.
One gallon of the solution should be used
for each 15 gallons of tank capacity.

drains
4. Pour the chlorine solution in at the gravity
fill connection.
5. Continue filling the fresh water tank with
potable water until it is full.
6. Turn the water pump ON.
7. After the recommended amount of
solution is in the tank, turn OFF the water
pump.
8. Open the hot water line on all the faucets
until water begins to flow continuously and
a chlorine smell is noticeable.
9. Close the hot water lines and repeat with
the cold water lines on the faucets.
10. Let the solution remain in the system for at
least four hours when disinfecting with 50-
PPM residual chlorine. If a shorter time
period is desired, then a 100-PPM
chlorine concentration should be permitted
to sit in the system for at least one hour.
11.
After the required period, drain the
chlorine solution from the fresh water
system (see
Draining the fresh water
system
).
Some solution may remain in the water
heater and will be flushed in the following
steps:
12. Fill the fresh water system completely full
using clean (potable) water.
13. Then, drain the fresh water system (see
Draining the fresh water system
).
