Section 8: Plumbing System
Sanitizing the Plumbing System
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
1. Turn water heater power OFF. Both switches (electric
& LP gas). Set the valves to
SANITIZE
as indicated
on the utility center label. Setting these valves bypasses
the water heater automatically.
2. Level the recreational vehicle and drain the fresh water
system. (see
Draining the Fresh Water System
).
3. Close the low point drain valves and the fresh water
tank drain valve.
4.
Full System Canister water filter (if so equipped).
Remove the canister, take the
filter out of the canister, and then reattach the empty canister.
5.
Bypass the cartridge water filter (if so equipped) :
Use the clear plastic tube (sup-
plied with RV) to bypass the water filter.
6. 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, 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.
7. Put the sanitizer solution in the fresh water tank; attach a hose to the city water connec-
tion inlet. Insert the other end of the hose into a container holding the chlorine solution.
Do not use your non-toxic drinking water hose.
8. Turn the pump switch ON. The solution will be drawn into the fresh water tank. Turn
the pump OFF when solution has been drawn into the tank. To aid in siphoning, set the
container on a surface approximately (2) feet off the ground. The drain valves must be
turned OFF.
9.
Remove the chlorine container and finish filling the fresh water tank with clean (pota
-
ble) water until the tank is full. Keep the valves set on
SANITIZE
. Leave the hose at-
tached to the city water connection inlet; place other end of hose in a container of fresh
water. Turn the pump ON. Fresh water will be siphoned into the tank. Turn pump OFF
when tank is full. Disconnect the hose from utility center.
10.
Sanitizer solution should be in the tank and tank filled
with water. The cartridge water filter (if so equipped)
should be bypassed (if RV has a full system canister
filter, the filter should be removed). Power to the wa
