Just for the record, the recommended sanitary standard for sanitizing the RV fresh water system is 1/4 cup bleach for every 15 gallons of water. Looks like your formula is a bit deficient in bleach.....
The solution was purposely made weak. It took a couple rinsings to get the bleach smell out. The camper has gone unused for a few months due to maintenance on the TC fridge cooling unit and other projects. Normally the TC is in use more and there is new fresh water every week or two and agitation from driving location to location. We do drink from the fresh tank and have never had an issue with the water. Starting the process shortly.
