Your well is flooded. The campground water smells questionable. The city just issued a boil alert. You’d rather not lug bottled water on your overseas vacation. For all these reasons and many more, the Sawyer Tap Filter belongs in your arsenal of ready-for-anything essentials. Simply attach it to a kitchen faucet or hose spigot, turn on the water and this amazing device goes to work, purifying up to 500 gallons of potable water per day. Unlike gravity filters, this water pressure-powered device immediately produces clean drinking water. And when we say clean, we mean clean: the .1 micron pore filtration system removes 99.99999% of bacteria (salmonella, cholera, and E.coli) and protozoa (cryptosporidium and giardia), and 100% of microplastics — exceeding EPA recommendations. Just hook up and drink up!
