Potable water filtration system

[Tom Warner]

I know there are some Montanans on this forum that will understand
this old joke about the water there, I live there once. When I was
fishing one day fellow with me got down on his knees and scooped up
some water in his hands to drink. All of a sudden after tasting the
water he remarked "buffalo up above us" and grinned. For aminute I
didnt know what he meant and then it dawned on me. At one time there
were so many buffalo there that they could really "taint" the water
when they waded across.

We are spoiled in this country. Our water for the most part is safe
no matter where you get it. We are just to finicky in my opinion
about the water in our coach. Go to Home depot and get a good filter
and install it on the line coming in when you fill the fresh water
tank. That should do it while you are actively using the coach. When
you get back put enough clorine in the tank to make sure nothing grows.
