regarding drinking water, a lot of people seem to mention bringing separate bottles/jugs for drinking/cooking/coffee. Is there a reason other than conserving the tank water? Does it taste bad out of the tap or something?
The biggest reason we bring water is the concern for bacteria/mold growth in the storage tank and water lines. You can run some bleach through the system to help counter this but basically you have a damp dark environment that is perfect for growing bad things. The other side of it is some campgrounds just don't have good water. I'm sure they are government regulated at some level to have their water tested. But I would rather put some of the water from the house into gallon jugs and bring that. I know my body is used to any bacteria that may be in my home supply.
