Hello All,
Help! I have a 2016 Sportsmen Sportster 355TH12 Toy Hauler and would like to sanitize the fresh water tank. My unit's fresh water tank does not have a gravity-fill port and is filled through the city-water connection. How do I get the bleach solution into my fresh water tank? The owner's manual doesn't even talk about the setup that I have. Thanks in advance,
