Bleach in water fresh water tank
I heard from a friend,after you stored your fifth wheel for six months in storage you should put half a cup of bleach in the fresh water tank? Is this a good idea and why? Thanks in advance

All of the above are great guidelines.
Here is an interesting website that deals with making water potable (not necessarily sanitizing a holding tank), but of interest is the various types and concentration of Sodium Hypochlorite in different bleach products.

Also noteworthy is to watch that you get regular bleach, some of the new products today have additives to enhance the cleaning process in your washing machine... so be aware to read the label first.
My 2c worth but do your own research. Personally, not withstanding sanitizing the holding tank, I use bottled water for direct consumption. Better safe than sorry.
