I don't understand the hydrogen peroxide/vinegar process you suggested. Would I fill the water heater with a hydrogen peroxide solution, let it soak, drain it, and then fill with vinegar?
Regarding the source of water - 10 or so different RV park water systems over the last 2 months.

ya the hydrogen peroxide will kill off the bacteria, plus loosen any organic material, the vinegar will loosen mineral based deposits.
this is a common treatment I see on boards and internet searches, I don't have to do it myself as nothing but city water (treated water) goes in my tanks
