[A/S] Re: Purging antifreze

Hi Ed

You are absolutely right they should never have put antifreeze in the 
fresh water tank.

When you drain the tank you leave about 1/2" of water in the bottom 
of it and since it covers a large area that amounts to quite a bit.  
Raise the trailer on the side opposite the drain about 4"  and level 
the drain side front to rear and you will get substantially more 
water out of the tank making it somewhat easier to rinse the stuff 
out of there. 

This is a good proceedure for winterizing as well.  For those that 
have a 76 or 77 Airstream it should be pumped out with the unit level 
as the pick up is in the centre of the tank.

The clorox will help as well.

Happy rinsing.
