Use a quarter cup of bleach for each 15 gallons of water. Fill tank and pump mixture into each faucet in RV. Let sit for a few hours, then pump out bleach water. fill tank again, empty though each faucet. Third fill third time, this water should be ready to go!

Add 1/4 cup of bleach for each 15 gallons of water. Run the water so that all lines has the bleach solution including the hot water heater. Let it sit in your lines for at least 24 hours. After sitting in your tank & lines flush your entire system until the bleach odor is gone. Google "sanitizing rv water" for complete instructions.
