Hooked up To Shore Water - Air in the water lines
Since we arrived at our latest campground a week ago, I can’t seem to get rid of the air in the water lines. I have tried running all of the taps several times but to no avail. Any suggestions?

The only ways I can think that you get air into a pressurized system is your pump is on and the tank is close to empty, your campground has well water and there is a leak on the suction side, or work has been done on the water lines recently.

Your hose fittings are tight and not cross threaded or pipe your connected to is not cross threaded by previous camper.

Have you noticed the water tank filling, level rising?
And, have you shut off the city water and used the pump? does it still do it or does it clear up?

Water tank isn’t filling. Haven’t tried turning off the city water and trying the pump but I will.
When I turn on all of the taps and let them run for a while it clears up for a while and hours later it starts again

Sounds like a problem with the city water........let us know how it operates with just your pump.

Is your water filter new or been in coach for a while?

It started happening again so I turned off the city water and turned on the pump. It’s NOT happening with the pump.
