I spoke to a food microbiology consultant about this a few years ago because i had the same concerns .
The things she rattled off to me are in this link that i found. I use it because it explains it better than i can write it.
You should test your water before you install a filter. The problem is with rvs, the water source changes all the time . I don't think any single stage is fine enough to filter everything out . Reverse Osmosis filters seem to be the way to go if you want protection.
Water purification and filtration , reverse osmosis .
what i do : try my best to keep my tank clean for washing and use reverse osmosis bottled water for drinking cooking. R/O water always says so on the label. I buy it at Target (singles and gallons).
A R/O filter system looks like it takes up more room than any straight single filter. For me, its just easier to buy the water i need for drinking .
