Editor’s note: It is a consensus that the water tank in the caravan is not drinkable. Every time I go out, I will fill a large bucket of filtered water at home and carry it tens of meters to the car. I have been enjoying it for four years. Attempts at the RV water system: disinfection, filtration, independent hot and cold water tanks.
It is a consensus that the fresh water tank in the caravan is not drinkable. Every time I go out, I will fill a large bucket of filtered water at home and carry it tens of meters to the car. I have been enjoying it for four years, and I have worn out several 18-liter outdoor buckets. , I also know that those buckets are of good quality (the most satisfactory one is actually made in Ningbo, see the picture).
As I grow older, my physical strength declines, and it has become cumbersome to carry 40 pounds of things, so I started my lazy mind and learned that the best way to disinfect the smelly water tank of the RV and add water from unknown sources is ozone. There are also two types of ozone machines, one is the air type and the other is the water type. I bought a 7g water type. In theory, it only takes 2 minutes per liter of water to fully disinfect. The actual effect has yet to be verified.
The second piece of equipment is the filtration system, which has been widely used in finished RVs. It has a certain effect on hard water softening, but it cannot eliminate bacteria and odors (some RVs have not been properly maintained after several years of use, and the water released from the water tank is already very smelly. When your water pump is still working normally, but the water flow is slow, it is likely that the water tank is blocked by smelly and rotten substances).
The third piece of equipment is a special sink for RVs. I used to use ordinary sinks. This time, because of the small area of the countertop and the need for comprehensive utilization, I chose a special sink. The faucets of special sinks are basically L-shaped. When you raise the faucet to turn on the water outlet switch, you will often be sprayed all over. This is because the faucet is just facing you when you lift it up. In order to avoid this embarrassment, I choose a U-shaped faucet to solve the problem.
The kitchen is placed horizontally in the middle, and the shower space of 80*80 is located at the middle door. This layout is more suitable for short-term use.
The hidden shower curtain is still very useful.

As long as the disinfection time is well controlled, ozone should have no other side effects.
