Though a bit of a PITA.....a quick bleach flush will “sweeten” the system. An occasional bleach flush through the entire fresh water system can “only” be a good thing! Here at the house, we are on our own well system, which if not treated occasionally will begin to get a little bit of sulfur smell. Hot Springs State Park is not very far from us, and we have lots of minerals in our water. I will give our home water heater a good flush ( water heaters seem to be a “catch all” for minerals and sediment) then fill our home filter housing with bleach...turn on the well and bring the bleach through the pressure tank, and into the rest of the house plumbing. After a day of normal use the bleach has worked it’s way through the system .....and, we’re great for another 6 months or so! It’s a lot quicker and easier with an RV! memtb
