14. Open kitchen and bathroom faucets to allow air to escape the water lines and the water
heater.
15. Turn the "Water Pump Switch" (Fig. 4-9 - #3) to the "ON" position and allow several
seconds for the pump to prime.
16. After the water heater and water lines fill, the air will stop bubbling out of the faucets. At this
point, turn all faucets off. Please note, the water heater will hold approximately six gallons of
water. Allow the water to run long enough to ensure that the tank is full.
17. Allow to stand for at least three hours.
18. Drain the water tank and water heater completely by opening all faucets and low point drains
until tank and heater are empty.
To remove excess chlorine odor and taste:
1. In a large bucket, prepare a solution of 1/2 cup baking soda to one gallon (4 liters) of water
for every 15 gallons (60 liters) of tank capacity.
Repeat steps 3-10 from above.
2. Allow the baking soda solution to sit in the tank for a few days, if possible. If you can have
the soda in the tank while traveling, it will work better to clean and refresh the tank from the
agitating motion.
Repeat steps 12-18 from above.
