Water works panel filling tank

Be careful with a fast fill of water tank. I removed my regulator for fast fill and the tank under the bed of my motor home looked like a balloon. The vent line had a little kink and the air could not escape as fast as the water was forced in. I did crack the tank on edge of the side wall and top of tank.

By then the season is over... :) Yea, it's a very slow rate. I am curious if there is back ended engineering for this? Perhaps needed pipe diameter for the fresh pump? (not sure)

Many RVs have a valve you have to open
It bypasses the water pump to let the water into the tank
Even with this valve open
It takes 45 minutes to fill our water tank in our 95 Safari

I really dislike this design feature

Might have a kink in the line behind the panel.
