[Rhodes22-list] Fall Haul?

[Bill Effros]

Rummy,

I prefer your solution.

Everyone has qualms about drinking from the R-22 water system because 
they put stuff into it they don't trust.

My home water is chlorinated.  There's nothing growing in it when I put 
it into my tank.  I keep the water circulating through the system 
without air bubbles except in the main tank, year round.  I don't have 
any problems drinking with it (or using it to clean dishes--what's the 
difference, exactly?).  It's a piece of plastic just like the jugs and 
bottles people drink out of.  By keeping my slightly chlorinated water 
circulating throughout the system year round, I keep killing anything 
that might get into the system.

I've never had any problems with it, and no one on board has ever gotten 
sick from the water.

I think when people "winterize" their systems they stop the water from 
flowing, and they stop putting new water into the system.  Come Spring 
they can no longer trust the sterility of the system, they can only say 
it didn't freeze.  I take canned soda out of my boat in the winter.  It 
will freeze and burst the cans.  Our systems aren't that rigid, and the 
expanding water has some place to go.
