Something along these lines is certainly your best bet. Takes more time to install/setup than the standard inline blue Camco junk, but well worth it. We have well water at home at can't stand any kind of "treated" water from a municipal system, which is what almost all campgrounds must be provide. Our filter (similar to above) helps reduce the treated water issue we detest. But FWIW, we don't drink the tap water in our RV. We only use it for dishwashing, showers, toilets, sinks, etc. And we always use tank water...fill the tank and use the pump. That helps us deal with pressure issues at various campgrounds.

This filter appears to use carbon, just like the Camco "junk." I see no need for a whole house water filter unless you want to use a cartridge that removes more contaminates than a simple sediment or carbon filter.

The one we use is a carbon sediment filter that removes both chlorine and choramines. I've tasted the water coming through it and it tastes just like my tap water at home (from a well).

Sure, a whole house filter isn't necessary. In fact, I'd say that the vast majority of RV'ers don't use a filter of any kind. But then again, many parts of our rigs aren't necessary. We can all get by with far less, but we do often choose to splurge a little...

The filter you mention is a good filter but will plug easily if water coming is not free if sediment, they recommend a sediment filter before this one.
