POTABLE WATER SYSTEM SANITIZING:
Your potable water system should be sanitized if it is new, has not been used for a period of time, or may have
become contaminated.
To sanitize your fresh water system:
1. Prepare a chlorine solution using 4 L, (1 gallon) of water and 60 ml, (1/4 cup) of household bleach,
(5% sodium hypochlorite solution). (As an alternative, several commercial solutions are available and
should be used as directed on the package.)
2. With the fresh water tank empty, (see section on Fresh Water System Draining), pour, (see section on
Filling Fresh Water Tank) 4 L, (1 gallon) of the solution into the gravity fill of the fresh water tank for
each 60 L, (15 gallons) of the fresh water tanks capacity.
3. Complete filling the fresh water tank with fresh water.
4. Turn on the water pump and slowly open all faucet's to release trapped air until a steady stream of
water comes out of the faucets.
5. Close all of the faucet's and allow to stand for 3 hours, then drain and flush the fresh water system
with fresh potable water.
6. To remove excessive chlorine taste or odor which may remain, prepare a solution of 1 L, (1 quart)
vinegar to 20 L, (5 gallons) of water and pour into the fresh water tank and allow the solution to
agitate in the fresh water tank by vehicle motion, (several days if possible).
7. Drain the fresh water tank and flush with fresh potable water.
WATER SYSTEM WINTERIZING:
NOTE: The water heater must be in the by-pass mode.
To winterize your potable water system:
1. Drain the entire system including the water heater, (refer to water heater owners manual for
instructions on draining).
2. Place water heater by-pass valves in the by-pass position to prevent the water heater from filling with
antifreeze.
3. Add 8 L, (2 gallons) of approved nontoxic recreational vehicle antifreeze to the fresh water tank using
the fresh water gravity fill.
4. Turn on the water pump.
5. Open all three faucet's, (sink, shower, and the exterior shower) until antifreeze is visible.
6. Open the toilet valve, (by pressing down on the toilet flushing pedal) until antifreeze is visible.
7. Turn off the water pump.
8. Remove the plug for the bathroom shower drain and fill the P-Trap with antifreeze.
To prepare your potable water system for use:
1. Drain the antifreeze from the fresh water system and then flush out the fresh water system.
2. Sanitize the fresh water system if desired.
3. Fill the fresh water system with potable fresh water.
