How to Get Bleach Mixture into Tank For Sanitizing 2021 t@b 320 Boondock!

in Heating/Plumbing & Winterizing
I was all set to sanitize my water tank today only to find out my flexible funnel with a rather small spout couldn't be inserted far enough for any of the mixture to get inside the tank.
Any suggestion?

    See your trailer Nautilus manual, it explains the process you need to use.

    Did you receive the Nautilus instructions?  Looks like you are supposed to use your pump to siphon from a bucket.

    Thanks Sharon.....it did not get the Nautilus instructions. Actually nor the Jensen sound system or TV, which I downloaded. Guess I'll be downloading the Nautilus manual too. Thank you for your help.

    I checked in the main manual and it really didn't cover it. Unless you mean the Nautilus manual...read above.

    We downloaded the Nautilus manuals for the 320 and 400 under the Category “User Manuals/PDF Files...” then look for “Plumbing Resources”.

    Yes, I was referring to the Nautilus part of the manual.  Didn’t realize it was a separate manual.  There also has been several discussions about doing this with the Nautilus System.

    One more question on this topic. After I siphon in like a gallon of the bleach solution, can I hook up the hose to spigot and fill the rest? Turning off the pump when disconnecting the siphon part and then turning it back on for the spigot water. I can monitor the tank level from the panel inside.

    *** I just realized the OP was about the 2021 with the Nautilus system. I’ll leave this for the non-Nautilus amongst us.**** 

    I use a kitchen oil/grease separator similar to this one.  I run some water in.  Then the bleach, quickly followed by more water to dilute the bleach.  I find it to be a very easy way to be very careful with controlling the bleach.
