How does a Lifestraw water filter work?
The filter is built as an ultra-fine mesh hollow fiber filter. Imagine a bunch of tiny tubes at microscopic size. 0.2 microns is so small that you can only see it under a microscope. The Lifestraw water filter removes bacteria and protozoan parasites.
Simply stick the Lifestraw into the dirty water and suck until the water reaches your mouth.
When is a Lifestraw water filter suitable?
If you have even the slightest suspicion of contaminated drinking water, use a Lifestraw. The amount of drinking water the filter can handle—optimally 1,000 liters—means you don’t have to ration it. Take it with you everywhere: hiking, camping, or canoe and kayak trips. There are virtually no limits to where you can use it.
Is there anything a Lifestraw water filter can’t handle?
Yes—this type of water filter cannot remove chemicals. In fact, you won’t find any on the market this size that can remove chemically contaminated water. There is a big difference in how water is contaminated, so if you suspect chemical pollution, avoid drinking the water entirely!
