I guess you winterize differently than I do. If my camper was winterized, I first need to add a substantial amount of water to flush out the antifreeze. Then I need to put the plug back in the water heater. Then I add a quarter cup of bleach for 15 gallons of water. After a soak I again need to flush out all the lines, drain the tank, add more water and flush again.
If I had a winterized camper I would be drinking the jugs of water instead of dumping them into the tank.
