We use fresh water tank for dish washing, shower, toilet, bathroom sink. We do not use water system for drinking.
I sanitize/clean the RV water supply system twice a year with bleach per manufacturer spec.
How do I keep the water "sanitized" and usable (for non-drinking) in between monthly 2 day trips to the beach, keys, cape etc.? A low dose of chlorine? Other product out there for this purpose?
We live in south Florida so the tank will be above 70 degrees for the summer season.
Thanks
