Again, I have a 2001 Marquis 40JSP. I cannot yet locate any way of putting water with a hose into my fresh water tank. Yes, I have a switch inside above the dining table to fill it electrically. But I want to actually put a mixture of chlorine and water into the tank and fill with fresh water to clean and purify it and the water lines in my coach. Surely there is a way to do this.
I have a clean funnel, a gallon jug container to mix the chlorine bleach in. I have regular bleach. I was going to mix it 1/4 cup bleach for every 15 gallons of the tank capacity. So, 100 gallons would be above 1.67 cups bleach. It's been suggested to me to double that for good measure and a good cleaning, but I will wait on your advice there. I was told that this is to be run through all the faucets, toilet, etc. and then let sit overnight. Next morning -- drain it. So -- drain it? I think I know where the tank drain is, but I wonder about 90-something gallons being drained below my coach where I am parked because the campground has some really nice lush green grass they have manicured and maintained adjacent to the coach site. I would hate to ruin their grass.
After draining I am to refill the 100 gallon tank with fresh water and add some small amount of chlorine bleach to that. And again each time the tank is refilled.
I will abide, however, by what you all say instead.
The key is where the darn input is to even do this. There is nothing I've found on the exterior of my coach to do that. In the water dept there are 2 inlets -- one for fresh water while camping and the other to clean out the black water tank.
What am I missing here?
Also, I have a bottle of a solution by Camco called "Drinking Water Freshner". Is that good to use? Would need a way to get that in the tank as well.
