  • Viral PurificationThe first and thus far only portable filtration device to physically remove viruses. Which it does at a >5.5 log (99.9997%) rate exceeding EPA and NSF recommendations.
  • Biological Filtration: removes 7 log (99.99999%) of all bacteria like salmonella, cholera, and E. coli. And 6 log (99.9999%) of all Protozoa such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium. You will find these removal rates to equal or exceed competitive options. EPA guidelines allow ten times more Protozoa left in the water than we allow. This filter does not remove dissolved solids, including chemicals and heavy metals.

Inadequate sanitation and contaminated water are the leading cause of illness in travelers. To protect yourself, consider your drinking water carefully. Travelers should allow at least a half gallon of water per person per day. Water used for brushing your teeth and washing your food should also be included.

The Risks?

Under treated water can harbor microorganisms such as viruses (polio, hepatitis), bacteria (cholera, salmonella, streptococcus), and parasites (Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium). Exposure to these organisms can cause serious illness, and in some cases may be fatal.
