Good advice. Thanks Bob. (And as you say, this water isn’t wasted it all goes back into the water system).
Got mine to do soon after the long winter.
I’ve just treated ours again after watching one of your previous videos, thanks again 😎😍👍🏻
Thanks Bob. Reminded us that we have to do ours.
Purisol acquired
Safe travels mate.
Hi Bob.
Great vlog, very thorough, will definitely be doing ours soon. Thanks.
Conrad.
Hi Bob. a great video on how to use, what to use, flush, clean and rinse.. pretty thorough.. nice one
can i ask.. i always thought you guys were winter moho guys and presumed you are always on the go out and about as some people are from videos.. but sounds like your van is parked up for some time before season starts like for most..Do you winterise as most..if i am right.. in which case do you clean the tanks once either start or end of season but this time you say since last Autumn.. (your late) i am a plumber by trade time past as not traded for 3 years or so and legionnaires disease comes to mind all the time with these cenario`s.. i dont drink out of out of the moho tanks other than boiling water for tea..Great to see this flushed out.. even more so as if i am thinking right this van will be in your past in time and good to hand over the van to a buyer after this video, you should note that..as most would not have done this work.
Another one as i struggle to get under my van My son did and dismantled my pipes from waste tank last week with not much effect as still slow waste outlet from sink as all clear through to tank..i await to watch your video on cleaning the waste tanks... sorry for long comment.. kevin
We not been out much since February, because we were waiting for the new motorhome and didn't go anywhere in case it arrived. All I do in the winter is drain down the water and because it's plugged in, leave the heating on low.
Another great video, thanks Bob.
Way back in our caravan days I used Puriclean and Purisol but then discovered that Chlorine based solutions can damage stainless steel components, water heaters, boilers etc., so still fine for Aquarolls and the like.
Since then, and currently in our motorhome, I use either diluted White Vinegar or Citric Acid, both foodstuffs and work very well.
I also always use an inline filter on the hose when filling the tank after noticing fine grit and plastic particals in the on-board filter.
PuriSol is safe with stainless steel.
Interesting video thanks, we wouldn't drink water from the tank preferring a either bottled it a plastic can filled from site tap ,
As long as it's been cleaned with PuriSol I'm happy to drink it.
Hello Bob
I also just checked the cold water filter on my Whale pump and you wouldn't believe what I found inside. There was alot of black plastic and pieces of grit. Also this material felt greasy or slimy. I clean the tank twice a year as per your video's so I think you should check your filter. I have photos should you wish to see them.
Thanks, that's interesting.
Hello friend good afternoon 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Good morning

Is this the same video you made 2 years ago?
No this is video I made last week, but yes I hoped no one would notice I made the same video 2 years ago. I have several thousand new subscribers since then.
This is one of these marketing things. Create a problem that doesn’t exist. No need to clean your fresh water tank. Just flush it out regularly in the summer months.
Thanks for your feedback but I'd rather not risk legionella thank you.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo just use for onboard tank for washing and showering and drink bottled water maybe?
@johnrocker2986 the big risk is legionella when left for a few weeks. We know someone who contracted this and it's not pleasant. That water is not wasted. It flows back through the system to water treatment plants. The reservoir we visited held 18 billion litres. We don't have a water shortage in this country we have an infrastructure problem. I probably save a 100 litres of water by dry washing the motorhome with dry sparkle. Your logic would have us not have us washing anything with water.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo true we don't currently have a water shortage at all. The water that flows back is it free from contaminants? Being a confirmed hypocrite I do wash my van from time to time and use a pressure washer to mitigate the amount I waste if the water as you say finds its way back into the system, why has Hose pipe use been band in our past, but you did mention another truth! Our Infrastructure is collapsing.
200 Litres wasted this is not right however way you look at it, this waste is life or death for some, sorry I love your stuff but this not acceptable.
Thanks for your feedback.
How else do you suggest a water tank is cleaned?? Of course it needs rinsing through
One of the wettest winters on record, large parts of the UK still waterlogged, if not flooded, and you're banging on about 200 litres. FFS 🙄
@@tommo9757 you missed the point, thinking of your self not others, this is typical response I'm all right Jack! What will you do during a drought.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo Worth a thought we have 225,000 Motorhomes on our roads growing yearly by 1,900 newly registered vans, if both Tanks are cleaned only once a year the water wastage is close on 90,000,000 litres of water although this is an exaggeration but imagine cleaning twice a year.
