Since I full time, I also have not sanitized my fresh water tank in 20 years. There is more than enough chlorine in city water connections to keep the tanks clean day after day after day.
They key is USING THE WATER UP and replacing it in a timely manner. Chlorine dissipates over time, as it works. Similar to a swimming pool which constantly needs fresh chlorine, (mostly due to sun exposure) your fresh water tank needs new FRESH chlorinated water REGULARLY to stay bacteria free. Once the bacteria gets established, it takes a larger dose of chlorine to knock it out. Ozone works too and it also depletes over time.
