Trailer: Scamp 13 ft

We are heading out for a few weeks in our 2002 Scamp. But I have not used it for 4 months or so. I plan to drain the water storage tank and add fresh water (holds 12 gallons).

Shall I add bleach first? If so, how much? Do I then drain the bleached water and just add plain water ?

thanks for the tips. Garret
