I added another pump and draw water from barrel into rv into fresh water. Cut into line and Teed it then added a 12 volt switch to operate pump.

There are cheaper ones out there but this is like what I use for lots of different stuff. All you need is your hoses and a battery connection.

Do you have a winterizing hose and valve, if you do you can use the on-board pump to transfer water from a portable container into your fresh water tank. set the winterize valve to "winterize" and the supply valve to "city", you are good to go.

A water bed pump would do the job. Be sure to clean it and sterilize it first. We use a big blue water filter as the last step before water goes into the RV tank.

I hook the pump up between the bladder and the RV's city water-fill connection. The pump takes ten minutes or so to empty the 45-gallon bladder. Our coach has a 100-gallon freshwater tank, so we've used the pump only a few times. The 60-gallon gray waste-water tank usually fills before we run out of fresh water. less

Using a RV water pump as a transfer pump is a GREAT way to do it. Using a "shower pump"... might be, very much, underpowered for your purpose. Lyla and Bill have a somewhat doable solution.. but the Winterize setting is meant for syphoning from a 1 gallon container of an alcohol antifreeze solution.. not large quantities of water from, "large barrels" of water.
But hey, you ask here.. you get lot's of possible solutions.
Please pick wisely and remember... in the end... it's all on YOU.
I hope it all works out and you find the optimum solution to your query.
Live long and Prosper!!! Your friend @ Planet Zargon!

Bilge pumps aren't rated for potable water; they might contaminate your tank with lubricants or other foreign matter. If you're using a pump, it must be rated for potable water.
