Truma AquaGo Filter

[Wandering Sagebrush]

We didn’t receive the Truma AquaGo default filter with our 2018 OTT.  I’m wondering how important it is to have it for decalcification purposes.  Your thoughts?

As far as I am aware, there is only one "Filter" associated with the Truma AquaGo.

It is the one that you would use to hold the Decalcification Tabs in the screen mesh tube, when doing that process.

When not in De-Cal Mode, the wire mesh would catch "particulates" from your water source.

I am not aware of any other WH in-line filter unless someone has installed/added an in-line before & outside the unit itself.

2 filters if you have the antifreeze kit. The original filter is used to decalcify the unit.

Do you only have the plug in 12volt anti-freeze heater kit option installed instead of the standard filter?  If so, then yes you will need a standard filter to do the de-calcification process.  They are available on Amazon from Truma, but pricey!   And check in the Truma compartment thoroughly by opening the outside Truma access door.  Some owners (and Oliver service folks) tuck the standard filter into the Truma unit in the area of the wiring harnesses.  It just fits in there for storage but can be well hidden.

We do not have the anti-freeze kit.  probably should have it, based upon our location...

Does the screen on the De-Cal tube just keep the De-Cal tabs in place and ensures the particles from there are smaller than the mesh.

Does outside water pass thru it on the way to the WH?  Or is the only filter for the WH, the one in-line at the  water pump?

Great questions , for Truma owners.

Yes to all the above by  @Frank C
We have both filters. The above filter for decalcification summer use, and the other (optional) anti freeze 12v filter for winter travel. @Wandering Sagebrush Is it possible the previous owners may not have purchased the optional winter travel filter?

We are really spoiled having the Truma on demand endless hot water, especially when using full hook ups and when it comes time for winterizing.

The 12VDC winter filter is all that came with our Ollie.   I’ll order the other so we can decalcify the unit.
