Plastic smelling water at all faucets.

I use a water filter at the faucet prior to the hose, but I still have a strong plastic smell ?
Any thoughts ?

Probably from your supply hose.

Is your supply hose specifically designed for drinking water?

Yes, that's my thinking. You need to use marine or an approved RV water hose. I use a filter too but I always run a gallon or so thru it before I hook to the coach. Charcoal element filters can produce grey colored water at first. Hope you fix it!!!

Yes I use the blue Zero hose that says it’s drinking water approved. Also use a filter

Have you tried putting some sanitizing stuff in the hose, capping it off at both ends, and giving it a thorough agitation?
