Water filter upstream of the pump?
Thinking to add a sediment filter (and a proper strainer instead of a tiny strainer that came with my pump). With my plumbing it's easier to install it upstream of the pump: tank -> 50 or 100 mic...

It's much easier to pump water than it is to pull it. Ie: You can only life water about 24 feet (before the column separates) but you can pump it as high as you want depending on the construction of your pump (think deepwell pumps). RV pumps aren't designed to pull water very far - they are usually installed below the level of water in the fresh water tank. Mount your fine filter in the discharge of the pump but don't expect to pump the kind of a stream you'll want at your faucets - it will more than likely dribble out of the faucets.
I run all the water I put into my RV through a cheap charcoal filter - it removes all the bad tastes. I also have a 0.5 micron filter for a drinking water spigot at the kitchen sink but mostly we buy RO water at local stores for drinking and cooking.
