I have a 33 gallon custom water tank from Adventure Trailer also. They did a great job with the build, communications and were plain easy to work with.

Just installed a FrontRunner 17.7 gal tank on the roof rack of my 2012 E350. They did the install at the back of my Aluminess rack in about an hour since they were close but it's an easy DIY install. Doubles as a shower as well as fresh water storage.

Regarding water storage tank
To the best of my experience as I have worked in industrial water storage tank manufacturing unit greatbasinindustrial.com/industrial-tanks-and-storage, you must go for stainless steel water tank for storing fresh water. As it is more eco-friendly and resistant to rust , easy to wash with utensil cleaning soap once a month or as per your requirement. If you will visit related shops, you'll get the best idea of the place from where you can get the best quality of these tanks.

PVC pipe for attaching to water tank
As told by Rayra, PVC pipes are safe for being attached to water tank for such purpose. If you go for other option, it will cost you more.

At one time I was looking into tanks for a build I'm working on, but due to a upcoming trip, I couldn't work the effort in. So I went with a couple of 5 gallon water bottles from Walmart and a Dolphin Water Bottle Pump.
Thinking it would be temporary, it worked out better than I could have expected. I refilled or exchanged the bottles at Walmart. 24 hour Walmart's are a godsend while traveling on the road. Or I refilled the bottles at campgrounds. On my next trip, I'm considering a smaller 3 gal bottle to leave outside on the picnic table with a another Dolphin Water Bottle Pump.
