This is a smelly job. I have secured a 250 gallon propane tank and I am in process of cleaning it out. There 4 places in the top that I can use as access. I am using 2 that I have unscrewed the fittings from. I have filled the tank with water. Drained it. Filled it again with bleach( gallon ) and water. Drained it. Filled again with water and bleach. The stuff that comes out is quite smelly. Also.. at the end of the drain process.. some larger debris is coming out along with rusty looking water.
How many times should I complete this process? How do I know when my tank is clean enough to use? Is there something else I should be doing to it to clean it?
Is this smelly stuff coming out a danger to my artesian well?
