Leroy, I drain the fresh water if it was filled with well water. I

have to prevent stagnant water. Maybe it isn't necessary. We use the
coach water while in transit so the wife and grandkids can use the
bathroom. I have established procedures to include a "do not turn on
tag" on the switch when the tank is empty. I failed to follow my own
procedures when I put the bus away. I'm just happy I put the
wheels down before landing.
