Water filter storage

[MarkVS]

On my new camper, the documentation refers to, in between trips, taking the water filters out, drying them, and then placing them into a plastic bag in the fridge.

(I have the platinum 'freshly Squeezed water company' RV setup).

I understand the reasoning (not grow bacteria sitting in the filter while it is sitting in water for a length of time) but interested how many of you actually do this, and what do you consider a reasonable amount of between trips for you to warrant doing this...

Yeah, but bacteria can.

Yeah, but bacteria can.

Not if you don't have one......

All my water is filtered through beer. Never had a problem apart from falling over but thats because of too much water.

Bought one of these back when we had the Trackabout - 2008ish... Did the fridge storage thing until we bought a B.E.S.T. [lots smaller] earlier this year...

Basically stored it that way when we returned from a trip. A bit anal, I know but the filters still worked well even with some very dirty water filtered through them.
