A Real Newbie Water Question.

Most, if not all, motorhomers carry a hose. Some carry a watering can or similar to top up the water level every day or so. Some use a container and just our in.

My advice is not to keep water in the tank for more than four days, even less in this hot weather.

Even if there was an on site  hose I wouldn't use it!!! My motorhome uses a Whale system so slightly different from others but if I had a conventional fill I would still want to use my own.

Hmm, having seen site hoses used for washing dogs and cars amongst other things, I’m another who uses my own. 

We carry two hoses of our own. Always fill from tap marked drinking water, but I have seen a few use tap where waste water is dumped......yuk! Keep a selection of connectors on board as well. 

How does washing a dog contaminate the water coming out of the hose for the next user? 

As they only get around 7 posts a day it works fine on C&CC 

I read on a different forum that some sites do provide a hose for filling your water tank, but some people use it for swilling out their waste cassettes 🤢🤢🤢

We’ll be taking our own!

The real question to be answered here depends on what what filling system your motorhome comes with. If it is one of those with a whale external filling system you can use an aquaroll or similar (even a small 10ltr plastic water carrier will do). If it is a system that is one with a filler cap with key, then a hose pipe with screw on tap connector plus an additional screw type squeeze fit should cover most scenarios. If you are really uncertain I would post what motorhome you have and ask the question again

We travel with about 20% full water tank for toilet and other water uses, other than drinking to and from site. That's about 20 litres.

we use 1.5 litre Plastic water battles for our drinking water, which are regularly filled with fresh water so no bugs.

when on site we top up with 30 to 40 litres of shower and washing water for use on site. 

On days out, I might top up the water a little, if known that the toilet will be used.  A camping fascination for the grandkids!  AND washing hands after all duties carried out.
