The bag is filled from the top, and has a pre-filter at the bottom. The cleaning is performed by a combination of activated charcoal carbon filters, Biosafe and the EPA approved iodinated resin for extra safety. The iodinated resin has been proven effective against crypto, giardia, bacteria and virus to a reduction of six logs (99.9999%).
The replaceable filter is good for and average of 100 gallons of great-tasting safe water.
Key Features:
* Also removes up to 99.99% of chemical pollutants and contaminants found in drinking water sources using its proprietary Ionic Adsorption Micron Filtration System. Contains Iodinated Resin (EPA Reg. # 35917-2) and other proprietary media which effectively reduces viruses and bacteria to six logs (99.9999%).
* Produces up to 100 gallons of filtered water before the filter needs changing. Note - filter life is directly related to turbidity of water. Filtering tap water will yield approximately 150 gallons life, Water from Snow Melt fed, gravel base mountain stream - 150 gallons, Green water from the Amazon River - 50 gallons. Extend the life of the filter by letting particulates in source water settle before filtering. Filter life is over when filter clogs.
* Contains a pre-filter at the base of the bag.
* Holds 1 1/2 gallons of source water.
* Weighs just 9.8 ounces. (17 ounces shipping weight due to retail box packaging)
* Compact, convenient, easy to use anywhere, anytime.
* Has an easy on/off switch to control water flow.
* When full, can sit on a flat surface without contents spilling.
* Anti-microbial tubing.
* Has an easy on/off drinking spout for easy use.

It removes up to 99.99% of contaminants and pollutants found in fresh water supplies including Aesthetics such as chlorine, Sediment and dirt; Biologicals such as Giardia, Cryptosporidium, E-Coli Bacteria; Chemicals (VOC’S) such as DDT, MTBE, Benzene, Chloroforms (THM'S); and Dissolved Solids (Heavy metals) such as Arsenic, Lead, Mercury, Copper, Zinc, Aluminum and Chromium 6.
The filter contains EPA approved iodinated resin (EPA Reg #: 35917-2) which has been proven effective in the removal of bacteria and viruses to six logs (99.9999%).
This filter also includes an exclusive new feature - it has been granted a worldwide exclusive license to employ BIOSAFE technology. BIOSAFE antimicrobial is an organo-function silane technology. It physically distrupts the targe organism's cell membrane on contact. BIOSAFE molecularly bonds to a treates substrate, thus making the material itself antimicrobial. BIOSAFE is safe, non-toxic, non-leaching and is EPA, FDA and NSF approved. It is molecularly bonded to the filters and acts like a "pincushion" of molecules that disrupt and rupture the cell structures of water borne micro-organisms. Its biostatic effect reduces bacteria to four logs or 99.99%. BIOSAFE is colorless, tasteless, natural and odorless and has an indefinite shelf life.
