Did you mean: 

Just had a brainstorm - how about a survey!

I just had a brainstorm when reading through the posts here.

So here's my question. We have two groups of folks on these forums: Those who exclusively blow out their water lines when winterizing and those who use the "pink stuff". For purposes of this survey, if you use a combination of blow and pink, you're still using the pink stuff.

Here's my curiosity: Is it because of the pink-stuff (taste, chemicals, or whatever) you do not drink from your own system?


So here's the survey question:

Do you "blow-out" or "pink-up" to winterize. And the second response, when you have de-winterized your system in the spring, do you drink or not drink from your camper?

If you do not drink from your own camper's water system, why?

Let's have fun folks, no jabbing each other, please?

I'll start:

Pink-up and drink. (I'm too old and too cheap to buy bottled water so I drink - but I did buy an in-line water filter this year too)

Blow, pink and drink. I just tell visitors that's that it's pink lemonade.

Pink only. Unless you have a "clean air compressor", blowing the lines will put oil, rusty water, and who knows what in potable water lines.

Use pink stuff and drink. However, I sanitize the fresh water holding tank and lines with a bleach mixture that is recommended in my owners manual before I drink.

Well I have heard of people that use Vodka instead of pink...

But I am a blow and drink from the tap kinda guy.
