Puriclean is the best product for sterilising drinking water systems and barrels etc. as it destroys the bio-film which is the harmful bacteria that breeds on the plastic surface. You can see more in detail about the product below.

we clean using puriclean in the march time, then a new filter, and that's it other than swilling out the aquaroll before using it on each trip, and we drink the water from the tap hot or cold! and been doing this for 40 odds years and never had an issue, lets face it the longest an aquaroll of water lasts is about a day at best! and on leaving the site no matter what time of year the water gets fully drained every time.

We use puriclean too but don't drink the water unless it is boiled.
I don't know why because the idea of treating the water with Puriclean is precisely what it is intended to do. The product is used for marine purposes too so if you are out in a boat in the middle of the Atlantic for example you haven't exactly got access to fresh drinking water so the onboard water needs to be treated respectively in order to make it safe to drink.

I think Tango has got the wrong end of the stick. Puriclean is for cleaning they system not the actual water. The water can be treated with sterilising tablets or liquid if you feel the need to. Normally I only treat the water if I am not sure of the quality of the source such as on some small farm sites and where the water may have been laying in the site pipes for some time especially in hot weather. I can not recall ever having an upset stomach when caravanning and I have been caravanning or camping for the past sixty odd years.

I haven't got the wrong end of the stick at all. It's absolutely pointless sterilising the water in the barrel if the system hasn't been treated otherwise the treated water will enter a system that is contaminated with bacteria.
