Sanitize 2015 Brave Retro

Should be simple but I cannot get peroxide or bleach into the exterior hose hook up to my fresh water tank. Can someone help an old man, please and thanks?

If just wanting to add the small amount for sanitize of the tank, we connect a hose to the tank fitting, use a funnel to pour the bleach into the hose while carefully holding it high enough to not allow it to run out, we then connect the hose to the faucet and let the water carry the bleach into the tank.

There is a check valve right at the fitting which likely keeps you from just pouring it straight in but the water pressure does the job!

To kill any organisms in the water all it takes is 4 teaspoons of household bleach for every 20 gallons of water in the tank. I take a very small plastic squeeze bottle of bleach and add about 1.5 oz of bleach for 30 gallons of fresh water to the RV tank.

As was mentioned, I use a long thin funnel that keeps the bleach from getting onto my clothes.
