## Description

The item is ideal for camping.

Review: Workhorse of a fitler - lasts forver. - I pumped many liters of water through this and had to replace the filter. The second was going strong before it was washed away in a flood! Even after daily use for the best part of two years the filter showed no signs of age. They are an absolute workhorse of a filter. The only problem really is that if you are filtering water which has a lot of sediment the filter gets blocked quickly and needs cleaning. However, this isn't too difficult and can be done in the field. You just need to take care not to cross-contaminate the filtered section with the dirty one. Note that you really need to scrub the filter so you actually remove a layer of the filter because this also removes the blocked pours. I highly recommend this filter. It removes everything from the water accept for viruses and even bad tastes from treated or unpleasant water sources. I used it in the wild but also in cheap hotel rooms and from tap water from gas stations etc, it never let me down and I never got sick in over three years of travel in Latin America.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what will it filter out of the water toxins like cripto ect**
A: Run your water through this filter to get all heavy metal. Afterward, boil your water to 100 c. It’ll kill all bacteria, viruses, and protozoan.

**Q: Am I correct that this fits with dromedary bag?  And if I buy those, a maintenance kit and ceramic element, anything else I need to buy to use this?**
A: yes it fits msr bags also nalgene steel bottle (1778 1002) the top is the same size to match pump also ok for use with fire/stove

**Q: Does the filter have to be dry before you put it away?  (Not for long-term storage but for daily use storage when on a multi-day hike.)**
A: No their will be no problem with no keeping it dry for a few days. as long as the filtration system is in use it will not have enough time for mold or any other fungus to build up on the filter. though I would suggest thoroughly cleaning the system to msr specific instructions at the return and storage of the unit.

**Q: Where can you buy replacement gaskets and filters, hoses, etc., etc. ??**
A: The hose is 3/16" ID (inner diameter), 5/16" (outer diameter) food-grade silicone tubing. It can be found on Amazon, Ebay or online.  A brand called Venair makes Veno Technoex tubing and it is a drop in replacement, if not better quality. Other brands are SILCON,  Tygon, US Plastics Corp. If you see platinum cured tubing as advertised it is better than peroxide cured versions for preventing any kind of build up in the tube, it is supposed to have a far smoother inner surface.  Averages $1.30/foot. Can be ordered via McMaster-Carr or in my case I found it locally at Canal Rubber in NYC. You would be best served actually calling some brick and mortar commercial plumbing supply stores and asking first rather than swimming around online as this product is used commonly in food service and a brick and mortar counter is likely to cut you 10' no problem.  Do NOT use vinyl or other types of tubing other than FDA graded Food Grade silicone tubing.
