• Add 1 teaspoon of chlorine bleach
(sodium hypochlorite) to your tank for
each 10 gallons of tank capacity. When
you fill the tank, this will result in a 6.7
ppm level of chlorine, which should kill
harmful bacteria and slime forming organisms.
Chlorine may be removed from drinking
water by the cold water filter at the galley faucet or by the separate filtered water faucet (if
equipped). Super chlorination does not affect city water usage, only the fresh water tank.
7-5 SHOWER HOSE VACUUM
BREAKER
After using the shower, you may notice water dripping from the shower faucet assembly. The
dripping results when vacuum in the shower hose (after closing the shower faucet) slowly
releases and allows water remaining in the hose to drain down. This is a normal function of the
shower valve assembly and is not a leak or defect. If items are placed into the shower tub
before shower valve vacuum release is complete, they may become wet.

7-6 EXTERIOR SHOWERIWASH
7-7 TOILET
The toilet in your motorhome is very similar to the household type, except that it is designed to
use only a small amount of water per flush. It uses a high velocity jet of water, producing a swirl
effect, to efficiently cleanse the bowl.
Important "Don'ts"
Don't use facial tissue or regular toilet tissue in the RV toilet. These will not disintegrate
sufficiently and will often cling to the sides of the holding tanks. Toilet tissue made
specifically for use in RV toilets and holding tanks is available at most RV supply centers.
Don't dispose of sanitary napkins or other non-dissolving items in the toilet.
Don't put automotive antifreeze or caustic chemicals, such as laundry bleach or heavy
detergents into the toilet or holding tank. These products may damage plastic or rubber
parts in the system.
See winterizing instructions at the end of this section to prepare the
toilet for storage in freezing conditions.
For further information s
ee the toilet manufacturer's operation information in your Info Case for complete operating,
care, and maintenance information.
7-7 DRAINAGE SYSTEM (P-TRAPS)
Ensure there is an adequate amount of water in the drainage system p-traps to avoid sewer
odor from entering your coach.
If you should experience a sewer odor, pour approximately 1 cup of water down each sink and
shower drain in the coach.
