lets in deadly viruses. Over time [weeks] the life straw which only blocks bacteria
and some cysts has a dangerous level of bacteria growth within the straw as the

S THIS FILTER SAFE?
If properly used and maintained, this filter is very safe and it already save lifes
all arround the world since decades. HOWEVER!!!! You need to put fresh water on a
daily basis to keep the inside ecology alive and efficient. You need to avoid any
dryness on the top layer (the filter is design to keep this area wet all the time).
You need to avoid any chemical in the feeding water (such as chlorine or any
contaminent). You need to avoid drinking the water for the first 2 weeks to let the
filter build up its good bacteria colony (cycling process).
