Water systems on 02 Georgetown

When we got pour new-to-us rig, all the tanks showed empty. The previous owner said he had blown all the water out using low-pressure compressed air.

Our previous RV had a gravity fill for the potable tank, but this one uses a pressure fill.

We have a particularly good quality of city water at home, and with our previous rig, we always used to leave home with a full tank. We were sure that campground "city water" would only flow thorugh the rig's plumbing system when connected and did not have any connection with the potable storage tank.

When we wanted drinking water (for us or the dogs) or for inclusion in whatever we were cooking, we'd close off the campground supply at the pedestal, purge the lines and then draw from the water we shipped from home, using the DC pump.

Does the Georgetown system keep the potable storage tank isolated from the campground pressure supply? It sounded like the potable tank was re-filling from the campground water a couple of times.

Can you post a photo of your water control panel where the water line is hooked on?

The Georgetown probably has a seperate potable water tank and can only be accessed by the 12 volt pump. You should have a seperate water intake for that tank nearby your water hookup to campground water. Also there should be a drain for that tank somewhere outside. Ours is located in the same compartment as the LP gas tank. I have never heard of any RV that did not have a seperate potable water tank. In our 2008 Georgetown, tthe hookups are are located in the same compartment along with a black water flush hookup. When you do find the input location, I would sanitize the tank before using it to drink.
