In this neck of the woods we have some problems with Bacterial Iron in the water and this is especially true for campgrounds using well water. I have through the years noticed some of this substance beginning to cake on my whole house water filter element. The way to get rid of it from the system is to shock the source with Chlorine (sanitize) or through an expensive filtration systems.
I will continue to play it safe and sanitize my system when not used for a month and at the beginning of every season. 3.00 for a gallon of bleach which will last a year is a cheap insurance policy.
I forgot to mention in the first post that I use Lysol spray disinfectant on the hose bib connections at the campground before connecting the hose.
