Filter the water into the coach.
The filters sold by CW and Lowes even are not the end all.
We have a CW filter, don't remember the name but 30.00+ and Lowes GE filter that will filter down to .5 micron and has silver in the charcoal.
They will get iron and sulfur and lead and a bunch of other nasties.
They will even take a bunch of lime. Much of the lime in water is large enough pieces to be seen in a clear glass of water. It will get that but not dissolved lime.
We have a couple of the ceramic filters, that were available at CW. They filter down .9 micron. The water on one campground went through the other filter above and still the ceramic caught a bunch of sulfur.
It took quite a bit of scrubbing but the filter was eventually cleaned.
An under counter filter down .2 micron will filter the water to your fridge quite well. There should be a shut off valve and fitting to the tube to your refrigerator there. An undercounter filter should serve both.
