Water filters system by SEARS

I've just equipped my house with this kind of water filters ( 2 filters, one 25 micron and the other one with salt for the tartar and the limestone. ).
So i remember that I ve found a similar system, when I bought my A/S with 2 bottles too and the brand was SEARS.
What water filters do you use in campgrounds and do you think it's usefull when you stayt , as me, "only" 2 monthes a year in the A/S?

Thank you, one more time , for your advices.

Bruno;

Bruno, we use a Culligan filter that attaches to the water inlet hose. Costs about $20 (u.s.). It is guaranteed for 1 year.

I can't remember the brand, but I think it is Tastepure. It is an in-line filter. It is light blue and is often sold with a 10 ft (3 meter) hose or you can buy them separately. I get a new one each year so after the first year, I just buy the filter without the hose, but there isn't much difference in price with or without the hose. I get them at Wal-mart. Do you have Wal-mart in France?

No wal-mart in France, but specialized tools supermarket as "Castorama" and "Leroy-merlin" where we can find all sort of filter cartridges, 5, 25 micron, for odor, taste, sand, rust, limestone, all sort of waste we can find in water ...
Do you use one ,each year to filter your water, in your A/S ?....

Yes, I am paranoid about the water in water hoses and campgrounds so I get a new one each year. Our 2006 Safari came with a filter in the faucet plus I use a water filter pitcher that I keep in the refrigerator for drinking water...I know, I am really paranoid, but I grew up drinking water from a well and we had all kinds of filters on it and I am just overly cautious. I also use a filter faucet on my kitchen sink and a filter on the ice-maker in the refrigerator at home for our drinking water and ice plus our water is from a municipal water supply.
