HydroBlu says

Whether your water source is a clear mountain spring or a silt filled lake, it has never been more important to remove harmful metals, chemicals, and contaminants from environmental changes along with human modernization. The use of Activated Carbon has been found to be one of the best natural compounds for filtering out those unwanted elements while also improving taste and color clarity.

The Activated Carbon Filter, along with the Pressurized Jerry Can is the perfect filter to protect your family. The Activated Carbon module is made up of mixture of activated carbon and ion-exchange microbeads. Activated carbon adsorbs chemicals and heavy metals, and improves the taste and color of the contaminated water. The ion-exchange microbeads are an organic polymer substrate. These beads are porous, providing a large surface area for removing pollution, poisonous, and heavy metal iron from the water. The ion-exchange replaces these negative ions with innocuous ions, such as sodium and potassium.

Additionally, this combination will remove unhealthy organic compounds such as chlorine, pesticides, herbicides, gasoline, and diesel. The adsorption of these various compounds improves the taste and the color of water transforming it into the perfect way to refresh yourself while camping, traveling, or in an emergency situation.

Our Verdict

HydroBlu’s Activated Carbon Filter for Versa Flow can be used as a replacement for an old filter or used as an additional line of protection for your current Versa Flow. The use of activated carbon means that this can be used to effectively filter water that would be much riskier than with just a hollow fibre filter as this also tackles chemicals and heavy metals, and improves the taste and color of the contaminated water.

This activated carbon filter system allows you to easily add it on or leave off your current Versa Flow set up depending on the water source you are using. This filter provides further protection  to your set up with activated carbon, there is no shelf life for the filter, simply the 680+ litres it should be able to clean before it essentially locks out.
