You missed one. We use the Frizzlife MV99 RV water filter system. It is also solid block carbon and filters to 0.5 microns. It is also certified by IAMPO R&T against NSF/ANSI 42&53. It has a replaceable cartridge and is designed so that you do not need to turn off the water supply to change it. And to top it off, it includes a pressure regulator. We've used it for about four months and are very pleased with it. And like almost everything else, it is available on Amazon.

Phil, just so you know, we used loose carbon granules for our green house filters at the State of California Pollution Research Center, and they worked perfectly. You don't need a solid carbon filter, as long as you have a carbon filter that is filled with activated carbon. The activated carbon, in any setup will attract the pollutants.

I think this depends on if the filter is upright consistently or if people use it laying on its side. We’ve used loose in our RV system and never had a major problem except for Florida water that nothing seems to filter well.

We use a inline filter at the city water but we use a Zero water pitcher for our coffee and to drink. Every evening we run water through two Zero pitchers to have cold drinking water and the other for the coffee pot. We started this after getting some really bad water in Alaska. It was so bad we had to throw away the water hose and buy a new one. And I had used their laundry before I knew the water was bad. We had to go to another laundry and wash our clothes twice to get them clean looking and smelling. Learn a valuable lesson on this trip. Thank you for this video it really explains the different filters. Safe travels.

Berkey! It has the limitations of just being for drinking and takes up a lot of space, but we haven't found anything that beats it! We also use the Clear20 as well but we also add a 5 Micron in addition to the two Clear 20 (20 micron particle and the 1 micron inline). We also use the On the Go water softner. That handles the whole camper and then we travel with the Travel Berkey for drinking and cooking! The whole system works well! Thank you for the great video!

Any symptoms that you can point to to say here is where the Berkey has a problem with the softened water? Doe it filter slower or somehow becomes clogged?

Since we tend to spend longer periods of time in one location, we also add the ‘On The Go’ water softener to our Tiffin. We don’t drink water from our rig, so we use the blue 20 micron at the hose, which goes to the water softener, then the ‘in house’ large white filter, and that’s it, other than our residential fridge, which has it’s own filter again, mainly used for ice-cubes. We only put water in our water tank from home, where the city has spent over a Billion $$ on a filtration system for the whole region, with clear Canadian water for the masses. Thanks Phil & Stacy for the explanation, as I’ll now be looking for the brand of filters you mentioned here…which reminds me, when I initially added a new filter to the wet bay, it took some flushing to get rid of the initial black sediment that comes from the filter we currently use!

Our outside faucet is not run thru this system so when I went to Walmart, I saw the Clear2 0 filter that stated it removes sulfur!!

You missed the best RV water filter setup. It made by Clearsource and that is the Clearsource Ultra triple stage. It filters down to point .2 micron, yes that is 0.2 micron, which is at bacteria level which is almost to Berky level filtration. Flow rate is over 6 gallon per minute. It isn't cheap but is the very best and it is mounted in it's own chassis system. And it doesn't take any longer to hookup than any of the inline filters. When I go fill my water bladder while boondocking to bring water to my RV I take it with me to fill the water bladder. So it is very portable.

We use a standard whole house cartridge water filter. The replacement cartridges are better and cheaper than the inline filters. They don't clog as fast as the inline filters do. I'm building a two stage unit for less than $75 that will use a sediment filter as the first stage and the 1 micron carbon filter as the second stage. As a note, you can clean off the sediment filter just by rinsing it.

Great topic. What about water softener for RV when filling fresh water tank or hooked up to water at a park. Softened water is not good for drinking, due to high sodium levels, but softened water is so much better for your skin, for suds and for the plumbing and appliances in your rig. Ever wonder why water pipes, water heaters and faucets often don't work properly in RVs.

Probably the best non-technical explanation of the differences of inline water filters, yet. We are clean water freaks and were looking for alternatives to the blue inline filter as we use a MultiPure carbon filter system at homebase. At the Tampa Show 2021 we bought a micro green inline and green large sediment remover from Clear2O. (Definitely need to replace 15 months later) But you saved us money because we thought there was also a replaceable filter in the large sediment unit and come to find out it's washable! We also bought the Clear2O drinking water pitcher at that show. Do you have any experience with that to do a video?

Was pleasantly surprised to see you endorse the Clear-2O. I retired from 30 yrs public water supply operations (& seabees pwc, btw). I began using it when they first became available. Within 6 months it (both stages) saved my RV from massive mud and sludge contamination the blue would have allowed-at a 5⭐️ LA resort! Ive moved on to 3 stage cartridges plus softening but preach Clear-2O to anyone that asks. BTW:didn’t see any softening on your rig. Do you?

Great to see you up and around, Phil. Thanks to Stacy looking after you. We use the Dirt Guard / Clear2O combination. Next inline is a single canister activated charcoal filter. Next is our water softener, then the water flows into the fresh water tank. Water we pump from the tank goes through the canister Tiffin installs on their coaches. This is probably overkill, but like you, we drink water from our fresh water tank.

We, too, drink our tank water. I use a whole-house big blue canister to contain high flow ceramic "candles", made by Doulton. Filters to 0.5 microns, removes about any contaminant you can think of! Became an obvious need after travelling thru Newfoundland. Most of their water sources are from surface sources, so often park water fell under boil orders. Does reduce flow rates somewhat, but added benefit is slower filling of gray water tank! To extend time between cleaning the ceramic candles, run a sediment filter upstream of the ceramic filter.

As always, we found this video very informative. This is an often-overlooked add-on to your RV. We have been using the two-stage canister Clearsource filter system with 5 and .2 micron filters for about 2 years. I agree with Phil, having a quick connection makes the setup much faster. To prevent making a mess when you first turn on a faucet in the RV, I make a point to purge the air out of the system and hose before I connect the water line to our RV.

This is probably pretty important information for most Rv'rs. The hose attachment water filters (better ones anyway), seem to be quite a bit more expensive than the canister versions. The canister versions will more than pay for themselves in short order with their cheaper filters and greater capacities. That 1 micron solid CO2 fills up real quick without a good pre-filter. Also as you said the canister styles flow is better also. So if your going to be using them for long, (and have the room) you might as well start with a canister. As far as the Sand filter (20m), you only need to use that if your hooking up to well water in the majority of circumstances. I would start with a 5 micron on city water and use a 1micron or less as your secondary. That should do just fine for all but the most finicky. If you want the absolute most pure water, you'll have to add an RO filter too. We use to say that was the best all around back when I was selling water systems decades ago, however now it is questionable if it is the best DRINKING water. But that is a issue all it's own.

Solid video on filters. I"ve been using a blue loose charcoal filter but i then run it into my Berkey inside the camper for solid charcoal filtering. Been RVing for almost 5 years now. Found you guys from the Hanks and I love the Today is Someday moto. Im selling my home and in process of trying to just make it happen. Thanks!

I'm running a 5 micro to a water softener then thru a 1 micro filter. We use a zero water filter container in the fridge for drinking. Works pretty good change filters every 60ty to 90ty days depending on location plus recharging the water softener.

Awesome video and new subscriber from Changing Lanes 😎. Question for y’all, where does the pressure regulator go? Before or after the filter? I assume after due to the fact the filer will slow the pressure down?

Welcome aboard. I have always put it on first. I want max pressure hitting the filter first. I have wanted to add it second....so maybe I will play with it to see if there is a huge difference.

Thank you. So I have purchased the clear20 and I also have an canister filter that I just changed to I thought was a more durable one. I have lost major water pressure and I only assume it was the canister filter. Your thoughts on having two or should we have one or the other? Thanks

You guys did a great job on the filter options. I was concerned that the canister option did not have a 1 micron filter until you added the third filter to make it a three stage filter. So far we are liking the inline Clear2O inline two stage filter. While we are really happy to have the improved filtration for our fresh water tank, we still use a Berkey to provide additional filtration for our drinking and cooking water. We view the inline and most canister solutions even down to 1 micron one to use with "city" water at an RV park or other source. We think Clear2O is a solid product. The Berkey has a 0.024 to 0.026 micron filter and can filter almost any non-potable source. We originally purchased it before our RV since we live in Florida and wanted to have a way to have water when city water was not available after storms or hurricanes. Now that we are traveling in our RV we can use the Berkey to extend our Boondocking time if we are near a water source and choose to filter it with the Berkey. Thanks again for a great video on water filter options.

Big fan of all your videos. Thank you for explaining water filtration and demonstrating the Clear2o solid carbon block vs the granulars inside the blue filter (everyone know it doesn't work). I have been using Clear2o since it first launched. And now I use the Dirtguard with my Clear2O inline filter. Never had any issues and I have recommended it to many of my RV friends.

Thanks for another great video, guys! I’ve been using the “green” pair and can rally tell the difference. One thought - I place my pressure gauge/regulator on the coach end of the filter pair. I am less concerned with the pressure going into the filter than I am with the pressure leaving the filters for the coach. If I cant get adequate pressure the filters being clogged is a possibility, but if pressure is set upstream, low pressure to the coach could have a number of causes. (Just a thought - from an admitted techno-nerd!). You all continue to be the absolute best!!

Chris, don't do this. I learned the hard way. I am also using the pair of green Clear20 filters but once I hooked up to an RV park with the pressure regulator downstream rather than on the faucet. Unfortunately the water pressure was 90psi at the park, and it cracked the lid to the pre-filter, forcing me to buy pre-filter to replace it.

So I'm guessing you don't use a Berkey? We have had one for 3 yrs now. So we should still use the in line Clear2O and a water softener? I am finding hard water deposits and I can't imagine it what our pipes look like.

1. Do you filter water as you fill your fresh water tank??? 2. And then, do you filter the water as you use it from the fresh water tank? 3. Do you filter the water differently, whether it goes to the kitchen or to the bathroom or to exterior hose? 4. What about UV purification?? Seems to me that viruses are smaller than 1 micron, and therefore would pass through ALL filters. 5. Lastly, what about chemical pollutants, like lead or mercury. These are atoms, so the tiniest of all. What can filter them out??

I do have a question when you are only running off your fresh water tank do you drink and cook with the water? If so how did you sanitize your fresh water tank? Thanks for all the great info you guys are sharing and the laughs. Randy Weathington

Hey randy, we flush the fresh water tank twice a year with a bleach solution. With us using the tank and always turning over new tanks, the need to sanitize is not needed that often. We do use the water to cook and drink from the tank when using the pump.
