Pur
Water Filters for Giardia
The most popular water filters these days are the
Pur water filters brand. They seem to be a good compromise
between expense and quality.
There are cheaper water filters out there, but the
Purs are probably a little more durable than the cheapest
ones. And since they are the most common water filters,
if you need to replace the filter part of the product,
the Pur water filters are more easily found in backpacking
stores.
But be forewarned, water filters are not that easily
located in rural areas. Don't count on being able
to find filters. Take an extra if you think you'll
need one.
There are more expensive and probably more durable
filters than Pur, but most people start balking when
the price goes over $100.
Pur
Water Filters compared
The
MSR water filters are newer on the market. They're
relatively inexpensive and the reports I've had from
the field indicate they work well.
Still, Pur water filters remain the most popular.
There are quite a few other brands out on the market,
too. Most seem to work. Obviously I'm not testing
all of them.
The reason many water filters will work for giardia
is because it is actually an easy critter to remove
from the water. It's relatively large in size.
Water filters that allow small bacteria and very small
viruses to slide through will easily catch all the
giardia. Pur water filters are very good for this.
