About this item
- Humans can live 3 days without water but 1 gallon (the recommended daily water intake) weighs over 8lbs. When you are on the move, chances are you'll be able to find water somewhere, just not the kind you can drink safely.
- Our filters weigh only 2oz and measure 8 inches long, so you can take it with you anywhere. Be prepared when camping, hiking, enjoying the outdoors, or when facing stressful situations such as natural disasters, national supply chain issues, accidents, or just about anything.
- Each of the 2 filters in this pack removes >99.99% of waterborne bacteria (such as E. coli and legionella), and >99.99% of waterborne parasites (such as giardia and cryptosporidium). Removes the smallest microplastics found in the environment (down to 0.1 micron).
- The lifespan of each filter can reach up to 1100 gallons, depending on how much sediment you're trying to filter and how well you maintain it in between use (the average person drinks 182.5 gallons of water per year).
- Keep this lightweight water filter on you at all times when backpacking, fishing, hiking, camping, hunting, or exploring the wilderness. Keep a set of filters in your car during travels, bugout or EDC bag just in case.
- Perfect for emergencies or disaster preparedness such as power outages, hurricanes, roadside car or RV breakdowns, earthquakes, floods, or storms. Keep a set of filters in your car during travels, bugout or EDC bag just in case.
- Whether you are enjoying nature or in times of emergency and stress, proper hydration will ensure you are in the best shape possible. Our filters are chemical and BPA free, and each raw material used in its components meet US Food and Drug Administration regulations and standards.
- Each filter is manufactured under rigorous quality control standards and tested regularly for performance, so you can rely on it when you need it most.

![practical survival water filter](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/S/aplus-media-library-service-media/4e064874-e79f-4888-92f9-6a41fca48dde.__CR0,0,970,600_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg)
How to use it:
- Remove the bottom cap of the filter and place it directly in the water you'd like to filter. Let the bottom part of the filter soak in the water for about 20 seconds (to prime the filter's membranes).
- Remove the top cap of the filter and sip.
- Regularly blow air through the mouthpiece of the filter after each use, to keep it from clogging. Dry it thoroughly before placing the protective caps back on the filter, and storing it long term.
Use Gravity:
- To filter the water using a bottle: Find a bottle with threading that matches the thread on the bottom of the filter - the typical soda or water bottle will do (28mm threads).
- Fill the bottle with the water you’d like to filter and attach it to the bottom of the filter.
- Flip the water bottle upside down for the water to flow through. When the flow slows down, either squeeze the bottle or let air back into it.
Avoid dropping the filter on hard ground or letting it freeze with water still inside of it - it may damage the membrane or the body of the filter.

Very lightweight. Tested one on a plastic bottle. Worked fine.
I would appreciate it if the Vet, whose idea this is, would sell a durable, non-leaking, BPA-free bottle to go with these filters. That way, I don't have to use the purified water in the bottles that supposedly come from pure mountain streams and can help the environment more by using one durable bottle instead of many plastic ones.
Recommend.
