If it was my rig, I'd figure a way to get that filter and hose much further away from the heater vent.
A minor side point, I was always told by more experienced campers that a filter, if used, belongs at the supply end so that it keeps contaminants out of your hose as well as the RV. It probably doesn't matter too much if it's just a sediment filter, but if it is filtering odor, etc. it might make a big difference.

I know there are different schools of thought on this, but, I put mine like the picture. Used to position it at the source end but could not EVER get the hose taste out of the water - didn't even want to wash my hands in it, and forget about DW. Tried 3 hoses and I suppose the hot sun beating on them makes them put out a taste no matter what. Moved the filter positioned like the picture and no more hose taste.
