sterilizing motorhome water tanks

[wacomuk]

How often do you need to sterilize fresh water tanks on motor homes?

And the next question is what's the best way of doing it :-)

There are various products you can get but for all the water system on mine I use Hydrogen Peroxide diluted This cleanse all the nasties but does not leave any taste.

 

Others recommend Bicarb of Soda. How often depends on several things but I do it anually at least and if I notice any change in quality do it again.

How much do you dilute it Jeff ? and where did you get Hydrogen Peroxide from, something at the back of my mind say hairdressers use it ?

I wouldn't know, I'm a natural old grey haired fella.

Can be used for hair lightening and tooth whitening... Have you heard of Google Nick? it's really clever and shows where you can get all sorts of stuff

I would definitely NOT advise anyone to start Googling hydrogen peroxide unless you'd like to go on a terrorism watch list in a hurry...

Too late Scott the helicopters are circling the WSCC website HQ as we speak

I use Milton... easily available.

BTW... I use bottled water to drink and make tea.... cheap to buy the gallon bottles and you can re-fil them to re-use.... and you know its ok....

as Gary says. a shot of Milton...

I thought MIlton was a successful showjumping horse ridden by John Whitaker  but no problem as if horse meat is good in food it may be good in water

 'Milton' (16 February 1977 – 4 July 1999) - even if you wanted to eat horse meat this would be a bit off...

Won over one million in prize money.... !!

Google may be your friend Pete, but it doesn't seem to be a friend to me

Sounds like Milton may be the popular answer
