Water quick connects

[Carl Hansen]

Greetings!

Has anyone ever tried using "quick connects" on your city and fresh water inlets?  It seems it would make things a bit easier if you are moving campsites regularly.  I think it would be straight forward on the city water inlet but there might be a problem on the fresh water inlet.  I have noticed that after filling the fresh water there seems to be water that flows out after I disconnect the hose.  Is that water that from the fill tube into the holding tank.  Would that cause any siphoning effect of the fresh water if the rubber plug was not re-inserted?

I use stainless steel quick connections from McKillans on my power washer.  They make an amazing product.  I was wondering if their garden hose quick connects might work on the Oliver water inlets.

Thoughts?

Yes, we use quick connects on our fresh and city water connections.  There are a bunch on Amazon, we’ve had ours for years.  

As far as water draining after you disconnect your hose, the backflow valve is at the back of the basement, a few feet from the connection, so the water that has not passed through the valve is probably what you are seeing drain.  I have that too.  Mike

I did the search before posting and did not come up with any of those threads you shared. Thanks for the help. 
This how the stainless steel McKillans look on the Oliver.
