Should you or should you not run bleach solution thru the hot water tank when sanitizing the system?
Any help would be appreciated.

Yes.  Run both hot and cold water in the sink, one at a time until you smell the bleach.  Do it in the shower also.

Also open up the toilet flush handle and the shower faucets.  Top off the fresh water tank, and then let stand for 3 hours.  You need to add a little more than 1/2 cup of bleach to the tank.
