TrailManor water treatment options under boil water advisory

[rich2468]

Hello fellow TrailManor owners!
I'm considering heading north next summer into Canada for an extended camping trip and have found that different provincial parks may or may not have boil water advisories in place.

I've never run into a boil water advisory here in the US (although I know there is always a possibility, too) and I typically carry a couple of 5-gallon water cubes on extended trips to use strictly for drinking.

It's not always convenient to find a place to fill those 5-gallon cubes when in-route from one destination to the next and I'd rather not run boil water advisory water through my interior water lines (and later need to disinfect them)- so I'm looking for ideas of what others have done.

I always use a Camco inline water filter to help with particulate matter and taste when using a "city" water connection or when filling my onboard freshwater tank, but that's not going to cut it for biological contaminates.

Due to the limited space in our campers and the likely limited need, I'm considering just picking up some Aquatabs (or something similar) and trying to figure out a way to get them into my freshwater tank to treat water there...
but I'm not completely opposed to investigate installing an inline LED Ultraviolet Water Filter Purifier as it looks like the power needs are realistic (for running one off 12 Volt DC).

I know that I'll need to match a water flow restrictor to the capacity of any Ultraviolet Water Filter and realize that doing that will have to align with the needs (requirement) of my DW who has to have sufficient water pressure/volume to shampoo her hair every so often or else that solution will be doomed.

Does anyone have anything that they use (or are prepared to use) when you have to take on water from a source under boil advisory?



Thanks,
Rich
