Add water filter

Our 2019 Windsport 34J doesn't have a filtration system. I generally don't drink from my RV faucets anyway but this is my first coach with an icemaker. Asked the dealer and they sold me screw-on filter that attaches inline with hose when I hook up to city supply. Has anyone installed filter in permanent location? My unit doesn't seem to have logical connection point.

I just bought a screw on type like they gave you. I dont drink the water either. Bought it to keep sediment out of the water lines.

I looked into mounting one but decided it wasnt worth the trouble.

If you do mount one please post some pic of it.

Thor mounted one in my 29h under the sink. It was a pita to reach and made it a pain to winterize. I eliminated it and now run the screw on type.

Ok, that is helpful info...I have an external screw on type and might just try it first

The screw-on filters are a whole lot better than nothing...
We used on in conjunction with the PITA under the sink setup, and our water was always pretty darn good!

Just make sure that you don't scrimp on the quality of the filters...
