Since I am in Florida, I always flush the FW tank before every use and I sanitize 2 times a year. I use about 2 cups of bleach, add about 15 gallons, run through the lines, then drain it all. Add another 15 gallons, run through lines again and drain. I (we) are paranoid and have no desire to drink or wash with any possibility of mold. Vacations really suck with sick kids.
Do you let your chlorine solution sit in your FW tank and lines for a few hours to sanitize? The manufacturer of my RV recommends at least letting it sit for 4 hours to actually work (or an hour if I make the chlorine ppm high enough).
