Use Milton steralising fluid. need to use a lot and flush out very much. but it will clean the tanks ok, as long as you fill it right up with the correct mixture and flush it all out.

Hi dondon1

OH is just about to use our bottle of Milton Fluid and on the label it says:

Camping Travel Tip - to make water safe for drinking, use half a teaspoon (2.5ml) of Milton to 5 litres of water and leave for 15 minutes.

For anyone who is about to buy Milton, in Tesco the large (1250ml) bottle is half the price of the small bottle.  I don't know if this is an error on Tesco's part but hey-ho.
