Safe Water Tips from Hi-Lo Hatti
This is for those of you that use the in-line hose connected water filter for the fresh water supply when hooked up in the campground.
Your purpose in purchasing these filters was to trap undesirable tastes and bugs before they entered your drinking water supply. Well! Did you know that after using your filter, if you just drain it and stow it with the water hoses you have invited trouble in. A cool damp dark place is the perfect breeding ground for mold and bacteria to grow. There lies your filter growing green things inside while you travel.
The simple solution to this problem is to just store the filter element in your freezer. No growing things will bother you after this. Remember to drain most of the water out first.
Here’s to your continued good health.
