I sanitize the tanks at the beginning of every season with standard sodium hypochlorite (household bleach) and then flush them. I do have a high quality carbon block filter with a dedicated faucet for a slower flow rate, just to remove the possibility of tasting any residual chlorine, which will not hurt you, but I don't like the taste. I routinely test the water, just to satisfy my curiosity and every time, it's fine. Also, I only fill my tanks with water from my home because the entire house has a water purification/softening system. I prefer showering in soft water, but even if you're just using regular city/ or mud district water, you'll be fine. Just FYI, we routinely test bottle water, just for fun. Some are excellent, some are not, depending on whether or not you're concerned with calcium carbonate. Typically "spring water" does not test as well as water filtered by reverse osmosis. Hope this helps.
As I had stated (in my previous…) trust that the subject of water quality can get to be a ‘Very Deep’ subject (e.g. irrespective of salutations), one deserving of far more attention than any brief commentary can provide…In some areas we may disagree or agree (can often become a ‘zero-sum’ debate…) but in my judgement (as with most other matters…), one should avoid outsourcing their own innate abilities and pursue their own study and further inquiry - determined by the objective (industrial, municipal, personal health..), water quality can truly by a multi-varied subject! JMHO,

Just because the BS meter gets pegged full tilt by so many of the responses here is not an indicator of how I feel. It’s just that so many of y’all are either knowingly or unintentionally largely full of sheet.
And that doesn’t help people here with honest questions or issues that they are looking for help with….

I wholeheartedly agree! We can't have a discussion about water without it going south. Same old argument in almost every post on the truck camper forum. It gets old. Sorry if I rustled some feathers... Cheers! LOL

Sounds to me more like a recruiting call for a speech moderator (aka, opinion ‘gatekeeper’), some ‘special person’ capable of calling out balls & strikes on opinions and of possible ‘ill intent’ ![[emoticon]](http://www.rv.net/sharedcontent/cfb/images/scratchead.gif "scratchead") , good luck with that, because (based upon some member’s provocative historicity…), who here can claim they are worthy of a waiver??….I’ll also add here the obligatory JMO - time to grow up or simply ‘tune out’…

Ok, since we have at least one water expert here: Are all filters created equal? I have a filter system from the RV Water Filter Store which uses a 1 micron sediment filter, and a .5 micron carbon filter. Are the ones from a cheaper source inferior?
Same question regarding residential fridge water dispenser filters. Thanks
