How To Get Rid Of Bad Odor In RV Fresh Water Holding Tank

by Anonymous

How do I get rid of odor in my clean water in my travel trailer?

ANSWER: Thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

The odor that you smell in the water coming from your RV's fresh water tank is a clear sign that you need to sanitize the fresh water system in your RV.

Sanitizing your RV's fresh water system is not complicated at all and the only items you need are household bleach and a RV Drinking Water Hose.

Once you are done sanitizing the fresh water holding tank you should notice that the bad smell in the water has disappeared.

I hope this helps.
