Section 8: Plumbing System
How to Sanitize
1. Turn water heater power OFF (both electric & LP gas on
standard storage water heater). Single switch inside the RV
for Truma AquaGo tankless water heater. Set the colored
valves to SANITIZE as indicated on the utility center label.
This automatically bypasses the water heater.
2. Level the recreational vehicle and drain the fresh water sys-
tem. (see Draining the Fresh Water System).
3. Close the low point drain valves and the fresh water tank
drain valve.
Full System Canister water filter (if so equipped)
: Remove the canister, take the filter
out of the canister, then reattach the empty canister.
Bypass the cartridge water filter (if equipped)
. Use the clear plastic tube (supplied
with RV) to bypass the water filter.
4. 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, 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.
5. Siphon the sanitizer solution into the fresh water tank; attach a hose to the city water
connection inlet. Insert the other end of the hose into a container holding the chlorine
solution.
Do not use your non-toxic drinking water hose.
6. Turn the pump switch ON (red LED will light). The solution will be drawn into the
fresh water tank. Turn the pump OFF when solution has been drawn into the tank. To
aid in siphoning, set the container on a surface approximately (2) feet off the ground.
The drain valves must be turned OFF.
7.
Remove the chlorine container and finish filling the fresh water tank with clean (pota
-
ble) water until the tank is full. Tank level can be viewed on the monitor panel inside
the RV (keep the valves set on
SANITIZE
). Leave the hose attached to the city water
connection inlet; place other end of hose in a container of fresh water. Turn the pump
ON. Fresh water will be siphoned into the tank. Turn pump OFF when tank is full.
Disconnect the hose from utility center.
8. After the recommended amount of sanitizing solution is in
the tank make sure the water tank is full of fresh water, the
cartridge water filter (if so equipped) is bypassed or the filter
is removed from the full system canister water filter (if so
equipped), and power to water heater is turned OFF (both
electric & LP gas). Set the valves to the
DRY CAMPING
setting. Turn the pump ON
and sanitized water will flow into the water lines from the tank when a fixture is opened.
