Are you talking city water or from your tanks.

City water, I have a house type GE canister containing a carbon filter at the hose supply. I change the carbon filter frequently. Don't waste your money on one of the anemic blue water filters that attach to the hose. They are seldom changed due to their cost.

Tank water is a bigger issue. Start with sanitizing your tanks. Then fill your tanks without using any kind of filter. If the source of your water is city supplied, it most likely contains some chlorine. If it is from a well, add a few cap fulls of chlorine to your tank. This process eliminates the stagnant and often rotten egg smell from the water that has been in the tanks for a while. Then filter it as it is drawn from the tanks either by an on board carbon filter or using pitchers like Zero or Brita.

As stated in other posts RO systems are not piratical for RV's used occasionally.
