Default Chlorine in the fresh water tank

I have seen posts stating that other owners would put a couple of drops of chlorine in their fresh water tanks to either clean them or keep the bacteria to a minimum. Sounds good but how do you know how much to put in?

Thank You In Advance

I put a cup in half a tank before a drive and then drain fill and drain with fresh water. Make sure you flush through all water lines,shower and toilets

I use a cap full of Bleach to 100 gallons of water plus I agree with Larry flush through your system.

Happy Newelling,

Joseph
