    Thanks. Yeah, i am a bit paranoid when it comes to the water connections and leaks. The plexi helps a bit in that department.

    Made a stand out of PVC and it sits on the ground underneath the trailer. Don't want a leak in the trailer. Simple and works great.

    I ended up mounting two bolts in the skirting so I can hang the filters from them. I put quick connect fitting on each end and a 4 ft. piece of hose attached to the water fill port. Tried it out this past weekend. Worked great!

    Careful with that skirting attachment. Pretty flimsy from what I have seen.....

    I was worried about that too but it's pretty solid just below the water heater and I won't be traveling with it in place.
    Here's where I mounted the bolts with nuts in the front and back so they are real tight.

    We Hung Our Filters in the Wet Bay

Then I thought about putting two screws on the outside skirting and just hang it there so if a leak develops, it's not going to be a problem but It won't look as nice being exposed and hanging from the camper. If you were installing a water filter system, where would you mount yours?

    We mounted a board between the 2 aluminum studs above the wet bay and installed 2 hooks to mount the filter system(we have the same system)Click image for larger version.

    DIY 3 stage using Clearsource filter pack (5, .5, virus). I took down the metal edging and paneling, cut a piece of 3/4" plywood to size, used pocket screws to mount it to the existing "framing," and the put back the paneling and edging. The plywood created a nice sturdy mount for the filter housings. I used 1/2" plex to create a hose connection and for the filter->inlet connection. I did have one small leak between the housings when I first pressure tested. It's amazing how tight I had to make those connections. The plastic is a lot tougher than I thought it'd be. I did use both Teflon tape and pipe dope on the advice of a plumber friend. No more leaks so far (knock on wood).

    I thought that I was the only one doing that. After using, I drain and cap the system (brass caps and plugs from Amazon) and lay it in the bay. I run the hose from the pedestal to the Clearsource, then a 4’ water hose to the Nautilus input. Super easy.
