Re: [A/S] Water Filters - External or Internal??
That filter is a requirement of the pump manufacturer. It is there to
keep chunks of plastic or whatever from the storage tank from getting
into the pump and jamming it.
Many Airstream's either as standard equipment or as an option depending
on year and model have a Everpure filter installed in the galley counter
with a separate tap.
For a few years Airstream offered a whole coach Everflo filter mounted
in the roadside rear storage compt. or under the bathroom sink.
A popular add on is a whole coach filter between the water tap and the
city water inlet. A number of clever brackets and holders have been
created to hold a canister filter. Basic charcoal filters
and more exotic blends like Hydro Life are available to use in that
application. Prices run from $30-100 for an add on filter.
