if you flush the system using purifying tablets at the start of the season  and any other time you may wish to do so during the season   then all should be well   filters are on the way out    we have an abbey and it was taken out and bypassed because it was impossible to remove all the water from it so every winter if froze and broke even though the system was drained properly      my  3 previous vans never had any filters either    boiling the water will remove any baddies in anycase    so if you are worried just do  the bottle stuff as mentioned above and all will be well   you don't have to drain the tank every day   just wait until it is empty and fill it  but empty it prior to any journey   it can help to unbalance the van and affect stability

Surely if you boil the water from the inboard tank it's ok in tea/coffee wouldn't you say?

re drinking    what do motorhome users do when they don't use the campsite facilities?  having drunk the water from the barrel for 30 odd years I have never had any side effects   whoops must go feel a bit queasy

seriously  if the problem were considered major then HandS advice would be more than forthcoming

We give our Aquaroll a rinse through with puriclean when we are setting up on site and have always drunk the water from it.

No point having it otherwise
