Time to change your Water Filter

Before the start of the caravanning season it is best to replace your water filter so that the water from your caravan tap is drinkable.
If you have not removed the filter before shutting the caravan down for the winter then some stale water may have resided in the filter and in addition the filter may have cracked due to frost damage
On many caravans a water filter may be fitted beneath the kitchen sink so that only the water to the kitchen caravan tap is filtered. This filter is always subject to frost damage so watch carefully when turning on your water for the first time.
Filters fitted to the water inlet on the outside of the caravan should be replaced before the season unless you have taken the trouble to remove this before the winter and rinsed it through.
