It's even easier to eliminate the taste by not using it at all.
I tried the pink stuff once, and it haunted me for weeks afterwards with a slight chemically tang to the water I did not care for. And since I was in a drought area, repeated fill/empty of the tank was out of the question.
With air, I stick the air compressors rubber tip into the shower hose end (head removed), and just step on the foot pedal for the toilet. Blows the water right out. Then I go to all the faucets one at a time, from highest to lowest, open, blow air, close. Then I open all at once and blow again, let the compressor run for a few minutes. And step on the toilet pedal again. Takes all of 15 minutes. Probably less with two people.
No mess, no pink stuff in the water lines come spring. I used this method in Fairbanks, Alaska over 3 winters.
I've never used the pink stuff.
Didn't even know that folks used it until this forum
All my trailers have been drained with valves/faucets left open
Don't even blow lies out
I do pour some olive oil in toilet bowl
