we have got a 2005 swifte challenger 490 with bad tasting water we have tried flushing out with milton and other products but still the taste is they.swifte have told us to flush with milton still bad taste
Hello Debbie,Hi Sara
My parents have a 2004 Swift Challenger and have the same problem. The caravan dealer they use insist there is nothing wrong and my parents think it is the pipes. The water has tasted awful from caravan purchase but it is not quite as bad now so don't despair. They try to use fresh water for drinking and they put a weak solution of Milton in the water supply which helps.

sorry crystal compact !Hi
As I said earlier I too have this problem,am goin to try the above advice but can anyone tell me ( I know this sounds really thick !) where I will find the water filter on my van ? its an 04 lunar zenith using a crystal maxi pump, bought the van used and not changed filter yet( as I cant find it !!)
Hi ChrisI have no idea what the tap water tastes like on my brand new van. I'm aboslutely amazed that anyone would drink water from an aquaroll. Unless you clean it regularly - you're going to end up drinking contaminated water. That's a fact. When I fill my aquarolls I aslo fill a clean regularly sterilised bottle as well. NO bad tastes - no bacteria
Tina, I haven't got a Lunar, but used to have a Carver Crystal System, (now Truma). Mine had a filter on the outside of the 'van next to where the pump attach's. A round clear plastic affair that you unscrew by hand. They may have changed now of course.Hi

Mick, some one else said that(similar to a washing machines)had a look but couldnt see anything that looked like it would unscrew,hence am wondering if it is inside somewhere !you may be right,I;m just new to all this and dont want to start twisting things that aren't meant to twist !!!!!!!!!Tina, I haven't got a Lunar, but used to have a Carver Crystal System, (now Truma).

have a look here at the whale aquasource this is what you want and they are relatively easy to fit.fit in cold water pipe as nearest to cold water tap
