Today i installed my Reverse osmosis water system in the rig
i was lucky that there was tons of room behind the water management panel, which provided easy access to get the water line up to the sink
i attached the water reservoir to the frame with huge zip ties and attached the filters heads to the frame just behind the big plastic cover for easy filter change out in a year form now
drilling through the corian was scary but it went great, slow turns on the drill and it was done


the drain for the filters is routed outside to drain on the ground, but when we are home it drains inot a tube that feeds a 55 gallon poly tank for watering the plants.

Looking pretty slick!
What brand is the setup? And more importantly, what is the pure water to waste water ratio? Was curious how those newer high efficiency models are working out in the RV environment...

its a GE i purchased form Lowes last year, I had it installed in my fiver. We had one for 20 plus years in the stick house , sure made coffee taste/smell better

it dumps 5 gallons of waste to one gallon of clean.
the plants love the waste water from it, they just shoot up.
trailer life did a write up in jan i believe but they routed the drain into the grey tank, that would fill it up pretty quick if you drink alot of water like we do

i still need to add the whole house filter, i was surprised the new rig didnt have one from the factory, but hey they are inexspensive to add.
