Re: Cleaning fresh water tank on my SM2K

I confirm, chlorine is not friendly with inox, specifically with 304 type. Some recommendations (temp, time and kind of inox) from dairy industry

Dave and All,
I wanted to add a caution and mention that Chlorine can apparently cause corrosion issues with stainless. Since our stainless keel bolts, nuts and washers are located in the bottom of our water tanks, I am pretty leery about putting a bleach solution, especially a strong one in my water tank. The soft scrub that I used did contain bleach but was rinsed away as the tank was cleaned to reduce the exposure. If anyone with a more expert knowledge of the corrosion risks from using Chlorine in our tanks could comment, that would be helpful I think.
