I finally found the email - please take the time to read this below everything will be clear
Slime in the Water System
Dear Chalkie56,
In reply to your email, the problem you have with your caravan water system, occurs in all forms of stored water systems, sometimes incurring health problems.
You have not named the propriety strilising solutions you have used, however, Milton is a form of Sodium Hypochlorite (bleach) which is corrosive and should not be used in a water system and of course it does not clean.
All water will contain some forms of microorganisms, even in small quantities which the human body can easily overcome, but when stored will multiply to unhealthy levels unless preventative measures are taken.
Biofilms
Microorganisms within a water system will attach to inner surfaces, cracks and crevices and secrete a slimy glue like matrix biofilm. Bacteria within a biofilm will utilise available nutrients to multiply, enlarging the biofilm which releases bacteria into water passing through, creating further biofilms and infecting the water.
The water holding tank and complete water system should be cleaned and disinfected periodically and water should be purified as it is stored to help prevent the problem.
Biofilms are notoriously difficult to remove and requires a specially formulated product to remove the biofilm and eradicate the bacteria within.
Puriclean is a dual purpose formula which both cleans and disinfects in one action. The powder is best dissolved in warm water in a small container, transferred into the storage tank, topped up with water and mixed. Pump the mixture through to all the outlets and turn them off so that the complete system is in contact. Leave for 12 hours, run to drain and then rinse with clean fresh water. Don't forget to clean and disinfect any hose you use. Repeat if necessary, but it is most unlikely. When filling with fresh water, drop in an Aqua Clean Tab to keep the water pure.
Puriclean contains:-
• Powerful cleaning agents
• Alkalis to dissolve soil
• Sequestering agents to hold soil in suspension to prevent redeposition
• Anti-corrossion agents to protect components
• Superior solid organic sterililant
• Wide spectrum of activity
• Fast rate of micoorganism kill
• High alkaline formula which renders the sterilant non-aggressive and the cleaning action more powerful
• Combined action which removes biofilm
Puriclean and Aqua Clean Tabs are available from most caravan accessory shops, but contact us if you have problems in obtaining the products.
We have forwarded our booklet on 'Care of Water Systems'.
Best regards,
Colin Vinyard
