Currently located at Thousand Trails, and recently moved from Encore Lake Magic. Couple of weeks ago myself and DW noticed we were developing skin rash everywhere. It finally occurred to me it might be the water so I installed a whole house filter and the rash has disappeared. ...
Just out of curiosity... Have you changed your hook-up hose? It seems odd to me that you & DW would be so broadly affected without other campground tenants experiencing similar issues. Internal RV plumbing would seem to not be the problem as the whole house filter resolved the symptoms. I am not sure where the filter is in-line. If it goes spigot -> hose -> filter -> RV, then it is possible the hose could be part of the problem.
I doubt you will want to provide a definitive conclusion to these questions....as proper testing methodology would involve removing the filter and seeing if the symptoms come back. Not something I would be interesting in testing myself! LOL!
Although doing a water test before & after the filter may be interesting. Self-test kits are $35 or so on Amazon, and I imagine there is probably a local company that provides the service.
