I have un-winterized (summer-ized?) my coach today.
The tank reading on the panel says the tank is 1/4 -1/2 full even though it is empty. At least nothing comes out of the drain. I am assuming that the sensor in the tank might be, like me, full of "stuff". Is there a way to clean this without taking the tank apart? I was wondering if there was a septic tank cleaner, or something along those lines that I could use to remove any organic material. I was picturing filling the tank full of water and letting it sit with a cleaner in it. Is this possible?
Also, is there a special adapter I need to use to fill my water tank? The Potable water fill connector is not a standard hose bib, and I was not given anything to connnect to the tank to fill it. I would like to sterilize the tank and system before Bean Station, so guess I will just hold the hose there until it is full and then go from there.
