Water Leak

[Kirk]

Have you tried the paper towel method?

True, but Im stationary... Obviously when Im not there I turn the water off completely so it doesnt leak and only use the water when I need it and also when im trying to find this leak.. its quite frustrating because each time I feel like i know where it is at only to find it isnt....

Sounds as though you use city water exclusively, if only when you're there for the time being. Sometimes city water can be pressurized enough to cause leaks at fittings, like hose clamps etc. Also a few extra lines in the city system. Don't ask how I know. Try filling your water tank and working off your pump for a bit just to see if you still have a leak. This isn't going to fix anything but could maybe narrow it down.
Pumps generally are pressurized to 35 lbs, city water is supposed to be 50 with pressure limiting fitting. I'd work off the water pump and , one by one, flush toilet, turn on sink etc and see if you can at least find what lines are leaking. Good suggestions already about paper towels etc. Maybe even add some non toxic blue or red food dye into tank to help detect.
Good luck, this can be a pita.

That is a good thought. I just assume anymore that everyone uses something like this on city water. Probably a bad assumption

In one campground I was in I mentioned to someone "One park I visit has a warning on the park info sheet about 120 PSI water pressure" a 3rd party to the discussion said "Carolina Landing".
Yup. that is the one.

And I've seen it on a pressure gauge... Elsewhere (They fixed it there however)

This is a good point. Are you using a water pressure regulator on your connection to city water? Most RVs recommend keeping water pressure at no more than 60 psi. The systems are tested to 100 psi but that is when new. Most RV water pumps that I have used have s shutoff pressure of 45-50 psi. If you have excessive city water pressure, that could be causing the leak, or it may have damaged a connection to where it needs repair. I have seen city water pressures that reached far above the 100-psi test pressure.
