In Arizona, there are water kiosks outside gas stations, grocery stores, Walmarts etc where you can fill gallon jugs for 25c or the large 5 gallon jugs for $1. Some areas do not have tap water that is very good, therefore the kiosks. I just used google to find them as we moved around.
The water in Arizona, especially along the Colorado River corridor, is so heavily mineralized you cannot drink it. Even showering is like getting sandblasted. So taste the water first to see if you even want it in your tank.
We have a double filter system and I replace the filters about every two weeks in Arizona.
Drinking water is bottled or from the kiosks. Tank water is for showering and toilets. We don't even wash dishes with tank water.
