The materials from which the components of the water
system are made may give the water supply a peculiar
taste, especially when new. This condition is normal and
can be reduced somewhat through the use of a water
filter; such as that produced by PuriTec™. The taste will
completely dissipate in time.
The fresh (potable) water system should be dis-
infected prior to initial use.
The water system should be disinfected before first use
and at the beginning of each season. The following infor-
mation is a general guide to disinfecting the fresh water
system.

1. Flush the boat’s water system thoroughly with fresh
water. Make sure all nontoxic antifreeze is removed
from the system.
2.
3.
The water system should be drained completely.
To disinfect the water system, use one gallon of wa-
ter and 1/4 cup of Clorox™ or Purex™ household
bleach (5% sodium hypochlorite solution). This is
recommended for each 15 gallons of tank capacity.
4.
Allow to stand for three (3) hours. If time is a factor,
greater concentrations of chlorine solution will be
needed to disinfect the water system.
5.
6.
7.
Drain the system.

Flush the system thoroughly with fresh water.
Fill the system with fresh water.
To remove excessive chlorine taste or odor which might
remain in the system, prepare a solution of one quart
vinegar to five gallons water and allow this solution to
agitate in the tank for several days during boating. Then
drain tank and refill with fresh water.
