    General Discussion Thread for RV Water Filter Store

    That is absolutely true. Balancing good flow with good filtration is the goal for all of us. What I do to mitigate low pressure coming from the spigot is to fill my fresh water tank with filtered water so that, if I have poor flow, I can still get a good shower by turning on the RV pump. If...

    I agree, by the way... Putting the filters first will keep the sediment and chemicals out of the softener, extending the life of the resin. The only reason I would consider putting the water softener first would be if the calcium and magnesium were causing scaling on the filter canisters or...

    Alternative To using Chlorine Bleach to Sanitize your Fresh Water System - Purogene

    Spring Fresh is a completely different compound that contains Ethylalchol, Sorbitan Monooleate Ethoxylate. I am not sure how to use it or what it's effectiveness is, but it sounds like it is similar to an alcohol swab for your water and is not EPA approved for ingestion.

    Alternative To using Chlorine Bleach to Sanitize your Fresh Water System - Purogene

    You can certainly use UV to sterilize your water after the tank. The link above is for 1/4" tubing and 1 gallon / minute. We sell UV lights at 2 GPM, 4 GPM and 6 GPM with 1/2" fittings. I have a few concerns with UV light. 1- They use power, 2- They use glass and quartz bulbs and tubes...

    Recommendation for Basic and Ultimate Water Filter set?

    Hi Rod, The system you have is the same as our Essential System and it is what I recommend for the whole RV. For a water softener, I recommend the Double Standard On the Go. It is portable and is rated at 16000 grains, which gives you good capacity to reduce the frequency of recharging...

    Recommendation for Basic and Ultimate Water Filter set?

    Thank you for your reply Rex, As you said above, bacteria is very difficult to remove with a mechanical filter. Even the 0.5 nominal carbon filters aren't bacteria rated. The Aquacera Sterasyl filters we use are rated at 99.9999% bacteria removal, even e.coli. The ceramic outer shell...
