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 ).

NOTE: If a chlorine taste lingers in the water, flush the water system with a
solution consisting of one-quart vinegar to five gallons of clean water. Re-flush as
necessary.

Permanent water tanks may be drained through a valve located near the tank. An
RV with a demand pressure pump system will have low-point drains attached to
the water lines (normally located near the water tank).
These low-point drains will release water in the supply lines by opening the valves
and all faucets. The water heater has its own drain plug. To drain the permanent
fresh water holding tank and supply lines:
1. Open all faucets, including the outside shower faucet (if so equipped).
2. Pull the white “T” handle on the permanent fresh water holding tank This will
open a knife valve to drain the water.
3. Open the “low point drains” by unscrewing the black screw on caps on the
water lines coming out from the underbelly. As their name indicates, the
drains will be at the lowest point of water lines. A label may be placed on the
outside of the RV to indicate where the drains are located. The drains will
typically need to be opened from outside the trailer.
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. Make sure the “water
heater bypass” valve is open.
7. Relieve the water pressure using the water heater Pressure & Temperature
relief 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.
