  • Our take on the PureFlow Emergency Water Filter Straw

    The PureFlow Emergency Water Filter Straw is a personal, straw-style filter for drinking from lakes, streams, taps or stored water when safe water is not available. It claims to remove 99.9% of bacteria and protozoa down to 0.01 microns, which puts its filtration in line with hollow-fiber straw filters from Sawyer and LifeStraw. It suits hikers, campers and emergency-kit builders who want a light backup they can drink through directly. It does not remove viruses, chemicals, salt or heavy metals, so it is a biological filter rather than a purifier.

    Questions and answers

    What does the 0.01 micron rating mean?
    It means the filter's pores are small enough to block bacteria and protozoa, which the brand rates at 99.9% removal. It is a biological filter, not a purifier.
    Does it remove viruses?
    No. Virus removal needs a purifier, such as a UV device or chemical treatment, so use one alongside it where viruses are a concern.
    Can I use it on tap water?
    Yes. It works on tap water as well as lakes and streams, which makes it useful for travel and emergencies.
    How do I keep it flowing?
    Backflush it with clean water regularly. Flow drops as sediment builds up, and backflushing clears it.
    Is it a replacement for a full water filter system?
    It is best as a personal backup or a light trip filter. For groups, large volumes or virus-risk water, a pump or gravity purifier is a better fit.
    Where is the PureFlow Emergency Water Filter Straw cheapest?
    At PureFlow, for $29.99, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the PureFlow Emergency Water Filter Straw?
    Rated 4.5 out of 5 from 1,242 ratings.
