Water from tank an odd color July 01, 2016, 03:02:49 am We're on an extended trip. On the road since late April.Anyway...I noticed the toilet water on refill wasn't clear anymore. Actually kind of a diluted urine color. When we fill up the LD with water we fill separate drinking containers. In other words we don't drink water from our holding tank but we used the same fill water to fill both. I compared the drinking container water with the motorhome container water and it's different. The drinking container water is clear and the motorhome water, not clear.I'm wondering if we should even brush out our teeth with this "dirty" water?Anyone know what's causing this?What would you do to remedy out?We've been on extended trips before but haven't experienced this.
