Question about non-potable water. I have seen gate guard ads that say so many gallons of non-potable water. I know what non-potable water is.
I am guessing you use it for the toilet and showers. Now you have it in your water system. I guess when you a finished you can sanitize with bleach. But I don't like the idea of having it in the pipe in the first place.
What am I missing here?
Thanks.
Non-potable means don't cook with it or drink it. It may not taste good and hasn't been chlorinated. i.e. it is not certified by any agency. Doesn't mean it's bad water or it will hurt your rig or even make you sick.
If you have ever lived in the country and used "well water" you have used non-potable water.
I use "drinking" water purchased at Wal-Mart for coffee. Showers shave and toilet on non-potable.
