FRESH WATER SMELL

Question

Recently the COLD water supply in my Springdale 291RKSS has begun to smell strongly of sulphur. Water supply is from the CG wells and has never been a problem before. I've tried switching supply hoses to little effect.
The latest suggestion is to disinfect the potable water tank. Showing my ignorance here, does the "city water" supply run through the on-board tank? Any thoughts will be most appreciated. BTW I have already changed the anode in the water heater.

city lines will bypass the fresh tank.

Thanks Pdogg. I figured that but wasn't sure.

I had the same situation recently. So, I took 3 steps. First I hitched up and pulled my 5er from WI to MN. During that trip I had a bleach solution sloshing around in my fresh water hose. And when I got to my new campground, I replaced the filter on my whole house water filter.

Not sure if 1, 2, or 3 of those items fixed my problem but I'm much happier now.
