Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Water Filter


  • What Water Filter Is the Best For Removing Nitrites
  • When it comes to selecting a water filter, the lower the "micron" rating, the more effective the filter.

Or the Clearsource Onboard RV Water Filter System # CS27FR (indoor) for an indoor option that filters water from your RV park hookup. Both of these options have a 0.2 micron rating which is the best rating...

  • What Is the Micron Rating of the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit
  • I did some checking on the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit part # A01-1131VP and the micro rating is 20.

  • Will the CAM40631 Camco Premium RV and Marine Water Filter Also Soften Water
  • The Camco RV and Marine Premium Water Filter, part # CAM40631 is a water filter, not a softener. A water softener will use calcium or some other media to remove the calcium and magnesium from water. In other words, the filter removes the solids from the water, while a water softener uses a chemical reaction to remove dissolved metals from the water.

  • Storage of RV with a Water Filter System
  • For storage of RV with a water filter system such as the Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System, # CS87FR, you should consider removing the filters from the canisters and blowing out the system with pressurized air using the Valterra RV Blow Out Plug, # P23518LFVP. Do not exceed 30 psi. Allow the filter to dry out and store in a cool dry location. You can do this many times during the camping season but I recommend you not re-use after a long off-season of winter storage.

  • Does Everchill RV Refrigerator with Integrated Ice Maker
  • The Everchill RV refrigerators we carry do not have an integrated water filter. Any filter would need to be an external version like the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter - Qty 2 # A01-1132VP. This is an in-line filter with your water connections. We don't currently carry the model you referenced, but based on my research it doesn't have an integrated filter.

  • Can The Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System Remove Iron From Water
  • It can most definitely help. The Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System w/ VirusGuard - 3 Canister - Outdoor # CS87FR will catch the larger parts of oxidized iron in the 5 micron filter. A sub micron filter like the .5 filter in the middle of this system will also be able to catch and filter out some of the iron precipitate that can be in water. The only other way would be to get a water softener system that uses salt to remove the dissolved metals and minerals from water.

  • Can I Use Camco RV Water Filter To Filter Hot Water That Smells Bad
  • The Camco RV and Marine Premium Water Filter w/ Replaceable Cartridge and Hose Extension part # CAM40631 is meant to be used on the main water line on the exterior of the trailer. I contacted Camco and there would not be a way to connect a hot water line to the filter because it is designed to be hooked to a hose. It is also not made to filter hot water. Currently all of the water filters that we carry are exterior filters. It sounds like once the water gets into your water heater it...

  • Replacement Water Filter Dimensions
  • We do not have the water filter with the exact measurements you gave. You may consider replacing your filter with the Camco Replacement KDF/Carbon Filter Cartridge for RV and Marine Premium Water Filter # CAM40621 which works with the very common Camco RV and Marine Premium Water Filter w/ Replaceable Cartridge and Hose Extension # CAM40631. This filter is close to the same size but is slightly narrower at 2.6 inches at the caps and slightly longer at 9-3/4 inches.

  • Can The Clearsource Nomad RV Water Filter System Be Ran Without The Pump On
  • The Clearsource Nomad RV Water Filter System w/ VirusGuard # CS67FR is currently not able to be run with the pump turned off. I spoke with the manufacturer and they have a newer Nomad model that has a bypass hookup that will allow this but it is not currently on the market yet.

  • Can The Clearsource Onboard Pro RV Water Filter System # CS59FR Be Mounted Upside Down?
  • The Clearsource Onboard Pro RV Water Filter System # CS59FR can be mounted in any orientation as water pressure is what pushes the water through the filter. It is best to position the blue canisters hanging down as this will reduce the amount of water which drains out of the Canister # CS28FR when you change the Filters # CS49FR.
