10. Close the hot water faucets and repeat opening all cold water faucets one by one until
you smell chlorine. Include outside shower faucets (if swo equipped) and toilet.
11. Turn OFF the water pump.
12. Let the solution remain in the tank & lines for at least four hours when disinfecting with
50-PPM residual chlorine. If a shorter time is desired, then a 100-PPM chlorine con-
centration should be permitted to sit in the system for at least one hour.
13. After the required period, drain the chlorine solution from the fresh water system.
Since the water heater was bypassed there should be no sanitizer in the (storage) tank
water heater.
Rinse the system with fresh water:
1.
Fill the fresh water tank full of clean (potable) water. Fill fresh water tank from an
external container. Pour fresh water into the gravity fill inlet using a hose (or funnel).
2.
Power to water heater should be OFF (both switches: electric & LP gas). When the
fresh water tank is full, turn the pump ON to send water through the lines. Water heater
bypass valves should still be set to
BYPASS
.
3.
Run water through all faucets (hot & cold, including outside shower) until chlorine
smell is gone. Turn faucets and outside shower off, turn pump OFF.
4.
Then, drain the fresh water system again (see Draining the Fresh Water System).
5.
Set water heater bypass to NORMAL
: Allows water into the water heater. Replace
the water heater drain plug.
6.
Refill the fresh water tank with fresh water again and when water heater is full of water,
turn the water heater power ON. Pour fresh water into the gravity fill using a hose or
funnel.
Follow the steps outlined in
Draining the Fresh Water System
with one exception; do not
drain the water heater.

with your RV.
NOTE:
To thoroughly sanitize the fresh water tank, the unit should
be driven around for a period of time allowing the solution to splash
the sides and top of the tank
NOTE:
If a chlorine taste lingers in the water, flush the water sys
-
tem with a solution consisting of one-quart vinegar to five gallons of
clean water. Re-flush as necessary. The vinegar solution may dam
-
age the water heater or the water filter, so both must be bypassed
again before performing this operation.
