"In the RV world they recomend putting chlorine (I use chlorine bleach) the water and then flushing the tank out good. I think a cup or so in the tank full of water, let it sit for 30 minutes to kill the germs, drain, then fill and flush twice. Kills bugs dead." This fine advise must not be misread to direct your attention to the other often encountered bleach gallon jugs. Clorox and those identically labeled for which you don't subsidize daytime TV programing, are fine. I was told by a health inspector who inspected businesses I owned that it was approved for "third tank" sanitizer solution, but the fumes were too tough. BUT, never use the other type. It's totally unsuitable. It is different chemically from Clorox. I was about to make a stab at giving the chemical name, but I'm not sure. Only use Clorox or identically formulated clones. John
