the hose in a container holding the sanitized solution. To assist the syphoning process
set the container on a at surface approximately (2) feet above ground level.
3. Place the utility center valves in the SANITIZE TANK position.
4. Turn the water pump ON.
5. Solution will be drawn into the fresh water tank. When all the solution is in the tank, set
the utility center water valves to the city ll tank position.
6. Remove the container and the short hose from the fresh water connection inlet.
7. Attach a hose (can be your drinking water hose) to the fresh water connection inlet and
attach the other end of the hose to a potable pressurized water source.
8. Turn on the pressurized water source and nish lling the fresh water tank.
9. When the tank is full, turn o the water source, disconnect the hose from the water
source, and remove it from the fresh water connection inlet (at the utility center or on

chlorine smell is noticeable. Include outside shower faucets (if so equipped).
13. Close the hot water faucets and repeat opening all cold water faucets one by one until
you smell chlorine. Include outside shower faucets (if so equipped) and toilet.
14. Let the solution remain in the system for at least four hours when disinfecting with 50
PPM residual chlorine. If a shorter time period is desired, then a 100 PPM chlorine
concentration should be permitted to sit in the system for at least one hour.
15. After the required period, drain the chlorine solution from the fresh water system (see
Draining the Fresh Water System). Since the water heater was bypassed there should
be no sanitizer in the (storage) tank water heater.
16. Re-ll the fresh water tank using clean (potable) water. Refer to Country Fill or City
Fill in Utility Center section to re-ll the tank. If city water is not available, the tank
can be siphon (country) lled.

ON, middle (mixer) valve OFF.
18. Set utility center water valves to the normal position and turn the pump ON to circulate
fresh water through the lines.
19. Open hot & cold lines to all faucets and outside shower until chlorine smell is gone.
20. Restore power to the (storage) tank water heater only when it is full of water. Tank less
water heater: turn the power switch ON (water is heated on demand).
If a chlorine taste still lingers in the water, ush the water
