Gang,

I have been thinking lately about the quality of the drinking water in our coaches.  I posted a thread a while ago about finding a fault in my coach where the "filtered" water really went to my dishwasher and my water dispenser at the sink was really just water out of the tank.  I swapped the lines and now am confident that the water coming out the dispenser is actually filtered.  However, I am still scared of that water and won't drink it....nor will I give it to the dog.  

So...I have three questions:

1)  Do you drink the water in your coach?  
2)  Have you ever tested the water for bacteria?  If so, how do you do that?  (I asked my vet and she got a very blank expression and said hmmmm thats a good question)
3)  Does anyone have a UV sanitizer installed on their coach?  

I guess if you plug into the city water and run the water for a while, you are just drinking whatever the city gives you but I rarely ever use city water directly.  I normally fill up the tank and use the pump.

My biggest concern is not minerals or heavy metals as I would think the filter would get those.  I am primarily concerned with biologics i.e. coliform.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Cheers,
bill
