    That's a really neat system and simple. Would also be easy to mod it to upscale it, for an off grid homestead. Have a float sensor in the first bucket and have a pump fill it from a larger tank, then have the bottom one drain into another larger tank which would then feed the plumbing for the homestead.

      I like that idea! Self sustainability

      have the pump presurise the plumbing system in the house and get a normal european under sink water filter. when you turn the faucet on, you get clean water.

      I have been using this system for the last 3 years it's a lovely system. I clean my well water for drinking. Colored water comes out crystal clear with no smell or taste

      @@John-N797 That's awesome! I think a lot more people could benefit from this system. I don't hear much about it

    This could help so many in bad water areas around the world. Great price for potentially 5-10 year life filter.

      @AlexHatlevig  3 місяці тому

      I agree! It looks like the brand does a lot of work in areas of poverty to help give people access to clean water

    Great video thank you for making it. I think it would be safest to set up the system and use a 3rd bucket or container to fill the gray water bucket and not dip the clean water side of the filter in a contaminated water source.

      I'm glad you liked it! That is a good point and makes a lot of sense. I think in the future I would do that

    Hey, thanks for the review! I'm looking for something I can use with brackish water. Ideally for drinking water, but would still be useful if it can turn coastal alligator pond water into something to shower and cook with. Any info on how it handles salty water? Perhaps not sea salty, but still pretty salty.

      I’m glad you liked the video! But I’m not sure about that one. You might want to check their website for that

    I just got mine. I won’t use unless my community says don’t use tap water. Will the filter stay new even if not used.

    Does it fliter out viruses?

    • @AlexHatlevig
      @AlexHatlevig  2 місяці тому

      From what I can find online, the Hollow Fiber Membrane filters that this uses "are able to remove a wide range of contaminants, including bacteria, viruses, and particles." That's what Google told me

      Like to see it tested with lab results like the clearly filtered does. All these filters don't always do what they say. Thx.
