Do you drink.......
the water from you FW tank? I've read where some people don't and i don't understand why not. If you have sanitized your system what is there to be afraid of??

Sanitizing a FW tank "may" kill off the bad stuff in the slime---not sure. Regardless, we're not willing to take a chance. We always drink bottled water when we're on the road.
. . . The first look into the tank would have made anyone cringe. Sure, there was some slime, but also plastic shavings and stuff left over from installation, tons of organic debris that basically looked like a layer of mud on the bottom. Since the openings to the pump or drain are not at the lowest point since they come out 1/2" above the bottom, one can never truly get out all the nasty gunk . . .
