I have a 2021 Reatta and I just left homecoming and the water worked great connected to city water. I went back to my home base and reconnected to my lot's city water and the faucets just dribble. Any ideas about what may be going on. It's the same with the coach storage tank when I turn on the water pump. I did use the outside cleanup hose on the coach and saw something about a backflow valve and a sequence when finished. Could I have tripped it and now it's affecting my water pressure? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Check the water filter, you may have picked up debris at homecoming. Remove the filter and see if the problem still exists.

Make sure the City/tank fill valve is on City. Might cycle it a couple of times.
Check your winterizing valve and make sure that is closed and any other valves are in the correct position.
Maybe you moved one out of position packing up.

Run it without the filter to see what happens?

Yes, take the filter out of the canister and see if you have water flow into the coach. It is the easier starting point. If you have good water flow, replace with a new filter, problem solved. Hope is it the simple fix.

It sounds like a valve in the wrong position or a clogged filter. They are correct with removing it from the canister and testing system. Tank fill valve on city and check that small winterize valve in the bottom of the plumbing bay. Make sure it’s closed. If you have a watermizer in the shower, make sure the valve there is in the correct position as well.

Where the external hose connects to the coach there is a screen in that fitting. That screen will plug with debris, check it.

Pulling the filter worked. Thanks for everyone's help.

Thank you for posting back, and glad it was an easy fix. Not the first time the filters have done their job with bad water from a camp ground. Homecoming may have been the first event using the RV Park since last fall with the water sitting since then.
I stayed at a camp ground in Colorado Spring on well water that was pumping rust. It did the same thing to my filters, been there....glad I had spares.

If the filter were plugged, do as Robert suggested and check the screen at the hose connection for larger debris that may have been caught.
