The Hand Pump system is ideal for emergency preparation
- earthquakes, floods, as well as for scout troops, serious camping
enthusiasts, etc.
A conversion kit is available for $129.95 which will allow you to convert this system to a countertop configuration, so it can be used every day of the year without need for pumping by hand, as long as water is flowing through your kitchen faucet. Capacity of all filter cartridges is based on municipal (treated) water. Actual lifetime of cartridges will vary substantially depending upon the specific water used, and so no meaningful rating can be given for cartridges when used with "natural" water from a lake, a stream, a pond or a river. |
