Question:
We currently are having a problem when we are hooked up to a city water connection and our water valve is in the “City” position. The valve is allowing water to fill our fresh water tank. Looking for a solution. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
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.
