How to Sanitize an RV Fresh Water System

In this video I show you how to sanitize both the hot and cold sides of your RVs fresh water system. This will ensure your fresh water system is safe for drinking/cooking etc.

When I winterize, I blow the system with air. I use the pink antifreeze only for toilet, tanks, and p traps. I have used Clorox to sanitize the system every spring, although I haven't exactly followed your method (we get used to bleach taste in the water 😮😅). If I substitute bleach for your method in this vid, do you recommend I still follow your steps exactly, or modify it somewhat? Thanks!

Spring fresh has a pretty distinct taste and the various flush cycles are required to purge the lines of any residue. Only the first stage really "cleans". I would suggest doing a taste test along the process , and if you are ok with the "flavor" then you could stop. There are no WHMIS or hazard labels on the product so shouldn't be much risk of anything more than a belly ache lol

Is it ok if it goes through the water heater?

[@CanadianCampaholic]

It isn't corrosive so you should be ok. I'd recommend bypassing the hot water heater if your rig has that capability. Camco may be discontinuing this product as it isn't on their website any more.
