Home Made Water FilterAug 31, 2010

Slow Sand Water FilterSep 01, 2010
Prototype unit I built to help me get a better feel for what kind of filtration rate (GPM/sq.ft.) I might expect to see on a larger system (think, rainwater collection.) This one only sees about .5 GMP/sq.ft. which is pretty low. Gonna try different amounts of media. Looking to get 2... 3 max GPM/sq.ft. Gravel, sand, and activated carbon. The ability to backwash is nice, but again, it's really not necessary unless you're constantly running something like, oh, mud, through the filter. The idea though, was that the backwash water could be collected (hence that drain pipe in the middle that comes out the side), the solids allowed to settle out, then run the clear water back though the filter.

Homemade Water Filter SetupSep 01, 2010
This is an inexpensive homemade water filter setup. Made from a coffee creamer container, a Brita Water Filter and a 2 inch rubber O-Ring. There are two ways to kill any virus or bacteria which might be in the water and that is to boil the water or to use chemicals. For this video I chose bleach, but there are other chemicals that are available in most outdoors style stores or military surplus stores. I forgot to add to the video that for water that is filled with larger debris and that is a little more cloudy to use a cloth inside the container to extend the life of the filter in use. Be sure to follow the instructions of the brita filter prior to use in the feild, if filter is not placed in a glass of water before using you will end up with water with charcoal dust floating in it. VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT...........bleach is only partly efective in killing the viruses cryptosporidium and giardia if used alone. The best way to kill all of the little buggers in water is to boil it. The tabs that you can buy at most outdoor stores are also considered a top method. If used prior to filtering the bad taste can be removed. Before using a filter or chemical in your water PLEASE do research on all of it!!!! Find the best option for you then make your choice of how you wish to proceed. I am not responsible for someone getting sick. Do the research!
Make it yourself water filterSep 01, 2010
This video is one that I sent to Drak (NCHiker1970) to show him how I've been using a Brita filter to sweeten the water I've treated with Clorox or the remove the "flat" taste you get from boiling water on the trail. This filter will NOT remove harmful bacteria and/or viruses. The water needs to be treated before running it through a filter like this. Although this filter might not be good for a Gram-weenie I think it is something fairly cheap (should be under $5), pretty hardy and can be easily made by just about anyone. Parts needed to make this: 2" O-ring 2" PVC Coupler 2" PVC pipe 4 or 5 inches long or longer (your choice) 2" PVC pipe 3/8" long Weight of this rig (with new dry Brita filter): 265g or 9.30 oz or .584 lb Like I said, not a Gram-weenie item. I look forward to hearing what others think of this. Be sure to check Drak's video on his filter. Being a coffee drinker he came up with an even cheaper and lighter way to do the same thing.

What kind of sediment water filters do you actually wish in your home? If you really experience a personal well, you may also want a dual stage sediment water filter. Single to trap large particles, really like sand, and an alternate to trap smaller micron sized particles.
