On my Cummins, I have gone a few years and to having the fuel water separator changed every year with the oil changes. I have never had an alert that water might need to be drained.
So doing it every fuel fill-up, sounds very excessive. Unless you are getting fuel with lots of water in it, or have a severe condensation problem in a partially filled fuel tank. In my opinion, from my driving experience, getting fuel only at major truck stops, check to drain it once a year, perhaps replace at 15-20,000 miles. But extra maintenance never hurts.
