Hi Emery,

I agree completely that the organism came from my water lines or tank
rather than the factory-virgin product. What surprised me was that the
glycol solution would support the growth of an organism that may be
common in domestic water lines.

And given that, if it could grow in the stored jugs then it could just
as easily grow in the lines of the GMC over the winter.

Do you have a preferred sanitizing solution?

I'm using the "bad" stuff in the drain traps - and now that I have my
hot water tank bypass installed I'm not worried about saving any in
the future.

Thanks again for your message.
