Our "non-potable" water comes directly from the Charlotte town water supply, via a 3500 gallon water truck marked "potable water". The state requires the on site tanks be marked non-potable because they are not tested on a regular schedule. The energy company furnishes us with all of the 5 gallon water bottles we want, by contract. I have no problem drinking the non-potable water, but the DW does, ONLY because of the sign posted on the tank.
Bob summed it up well. In every place we have been assigned, the water starts out from an approved source. Sometimes after that the handling of the water transfers to your nurse tank and the equipment used to do so may be a bit ---ummmmm---- questionable.
As Bob said, most companies are happy to let you grab a 5 gallon jug off of their water delivery truck when it rolls through the gate. In our case, I have a whole house filter that all the water transferred from the nurse tank for RV use goes through. In addition we have another filter under the kitchen sink that also has UV sterilization. It feeds a separate little faucet on the kitchen sink should we run out of the company supplied water.
