How to sanitize
1. Level the motor home and drain the fresh water system (see Draining the

fresh water system).

2. 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 as discussed in step 13, 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.
3. At the exterior utility center, place the clear hose into the container with the
chlorine solution.
4. Turn the "city water / fresh tank fill valve" to the FILL TANK position.
5. Turn the "sanitize / winterize intake valve" to the SANI/WINT position.
6. Turn the water pump ON.
7. After the recommended amount of solution is in the tank, turn the
"sanitize/winterize intake valve" back to the NORMAL position.
8. Turn the "city water / fresh tank fill valve" to the NORMAL position.
9. Open the hot water line on all the faucets (kitchen, lavatory, shower and
outside shower) until water begins to flow continuously and a chlorine smell is
noticeable.
10. Close the hot water lines and repeat with the cold water lines on the faucets.
11. 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.
12. 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:
13. Fill the fresh water system using clean (potable) water (see Fresh water
connections) completely full.
14. 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.
