Most RV fresh water tanks have to be gravity or hand pump fed and cannot be filled using an electric pump. That is because they are designed as a low pressure application.
You can either take the hose straight to the water inlet or you can use a hand pump like the Valterra Antifreeze Hand Pump with City Water Connection Hose for RV Winterizing # P23507VP. While this pump is meant for winterizing your RV, it could be used for water to transfer water from a container to your fresh water tank. view full answer...

RV Fresh-Water Fill Spout # CAM37102 is a replacement spout that is designed for fresh water input from a hose. But you are right that it does not thread in. This is the case with all of the replacement fresh water spouts we carry. The hose would have to be held in with friction or be physically held by hand.
For sewer hose with swivel fittings and 4 in 1 adapter (depending on what the dump station requires) you can use # CAM39761. view full answer...
The water leaking is normal its your overflow which means that your fresh tank is now full. If you install a valve on the overflow then it needs to be open when filling and when using or else the tank could explode. It could also be that your check valve went bad. The Valterra Check Valve for RV Fresh Water Systems # P23415LFVP has dual 1/2 inch MPT. The Valterra Check Valve for RV Fresh Water Systems # P23402LFVP has a 1/2 inch MPT x 1/2 inch FPT. view full answer...

You should only need the Valterra Check Valve for RV Fresh Water Systems # P23415LFVP at the cold inlet of your water heater. Typically you will have a total of three fresh water check valves; one at the cold inlet to the water heater, one at the city water inlet and one located at the outlet of the water pump. view full answer...
Hi Maria,
A water hose that is white with a blue stripe generally indicates it is a drinking water/fresh water hose. These will connect to your trailer's city water inlet, which is what I believe you were referencing, and we have a number of different lengths to choose from:
- 10 Feet: AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose for RV # W01-5120
- 25 Feet: AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose for RV # W01-5300
- 50 Feet: AquaFresh High Pressure Drinking Water Hose for RV # W01-5600 view full answer...
I did some checking on the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit part # A01-1131VP and the micro rating is 20. The water filter kit reduces chlorine, sediment, and bacterial all while improving the taste and odor of your fresh water supply. The filter will need to be replaced when your water flow deceases as that is a sign that the filter is full. The AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter part # A01-1132VP can be used for this.
The Camco RV and Marine Premium Water Filter Kit part # CAM40631... view full answer...
Hey Cee,
We appreciate the recommendation from Santa Rosa RV, and yes, you can get that water hose and inline filter. For those just use the Camco RV Drinking Water Hose - 10' Long # CAM22743 and AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit # A01-1131VP.
Best of luck on the home renovation! view full answer...
A backflow preventer like the Camco RV Fresh Water System Backflow Preventer - 1/2" Diameter - Brass # CAM23303. will allow water to flow only in one direction so that your fresh water tank doesn't fill up from water backfilling into it from your city water connection. If your connection requires a double male pipe thread connector then # P23415LFVP will be a good option.

The part # P25206VP is designed to thread directly onto the Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump part # LC689054 with the Straight Barbed Fitting for HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump part # P25205VP threaded onto the other side.
If you want to use the Inline Filter for Hydromax RV Fresh Water Pump in another application you'd simply need to use some sort of adapter like a union which will go from MPT to FPT, just be sure to use ABS plastic but you could get these adapters at most local home improvement... view full answer...
I went out to the warehouse and pulled the Camco RV Fresh-Water Hose, part # CAM22763, and used the digital calipers to take some measurements for you. The diameter of the hose fitting is 1". (See the image showing these dimensions I made elsewhere on the page.) I was able to insert the Camco RV Fresh-Water Hose Filter Washers, part # CAM20183, into the hose fitting with no problem, so yes, they are compatible.
I have included a couple of product demonstration videos for your reference. view full answer...

Unfortunately having your RV information does not tell me what fresh water pump that you have or if the HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump # P25201 would be the correct replacement.
However, I can tell you that the HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump # P25201 is a direct replacement for a 3-gallon-per-minute, 12-volt pump and uses 1/2" diameter hose. This pump will almost certainly work as a replacement, but whether it is a direct replacement depends on what you currently have.

The arrow on the RV Check Valve for Fresh Water Systems # 37262195 is confusing but it actually shows the direction the water WON'T flow and not the direction it does flow. It is an odd way to illustrate the function of the valve but we confirmed this with the manufacturer recently. view full answer...
The Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump part # LC689052 is our best replacement option for a Shurflow RV Fresh Water Pump 2088-422-174. The specs are very similar (2.9 GPM Vs. 3.0 GPM) so this will be an excellent choice. In regards to specs alone it would be a direct replacement but you will need to attach a few wires and possibly drill new holes for mounting but nothing too crazy or that you wouldn't have to do for any other pump. The new pump comes with fittings which require 1/2" hoses so... view full answer...
There are no gaskets at the connectors for the Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump # LC689052. The fittings are designed with a taper seal to create a watertight connection.
If you are having issues with leaking and the connectors are somehow compromised, they are replaceable with the Replacement Strainer and Swivel Connectors for Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pumps # LC689059. view full answer...
