Sagan™ AquaBrick™ Water Purification System

Drink From the River, the Flood, or the Pool

The Sagan AquaBrick Water Purification System turns almost any non-salt water source into safe drinking water in minutes. The DuraFlo nanofiber filter removes 99.9999% of bacteria including salmonella, cholera, and E. coli, 99.99% of viruses, and 99.99% of protozoa including giardia and cryptosporidium — independently lab-tested and certified by Aquaveritas.

Operation is entirely mechanical, so it works with no power and no batteries: fill the 3-gallon BPA-free AquaBrick container, drop in the filter, pressurize with the hand pump, and dispense through the spigot at about half a gallon per minute. Each filter handles up to 700 gallons — or 500 gallons of residential pool water, which is the largest water reserve most households already own and never think about. The full system weighs 2.5 lbs, and the container stacks at 18"L x 9"W x 6"H.

Best for

• Home emergency water — earthquake, flood, boil-water order
• Turning a swimming pool into weeks of drinking water
• Basecamp, hunting camp, and long river trips
• Anyone whose water plan currently ends at a case of bottles
