On my 2nd camping trip I used a water filter and connected to fresh water.  When I disconnected it, my shower area was flooded with about 3" of clean water.  Is there something I should do to prevent this event?  Use the pump?hankful I discoveed it before going on the road.

Was this clean water coming from the shower head?  How did that happen?

That is really strange.  It sounds like the gray tank was full or else it would have drained.  But I'll be darned if this makes any sense to me.

I don't understand what you're saying either.  If you've been setup and working like normal and at the end of the trip you have water in the bottom of the shower staw, it means you're grey tank is filled.

So you see it draining out under the camper?  Sounds like a loose drain connection.  You could try opening the air vent under the shower door and looking in with a flashlight while the shower runs.
