LifeStraw is ideal for hiking, backpacking, camping, travel, and emergency preparedness. The straw-style filter design lets you turn up to 1,000 gal | 4,000 L of contaminated water into safe drinking water.
Let's you drink directly from streams and lakes or from any container. For each LifeStraw you purchase, one school child in a developing community receives safe drinking water for an entire school year.
Cleaning my LifeStraw
After every use, backflush your LifeStraw by blowing a breath of air back into the mouthpiece to purge all remaining water trapped within the filter. If you have access to clean water, suck some into the filter and backflush it again. Give it a few shakes and leave both ends uncapped to air dry at room temperature.
How long will my LifeStraw last
The LifeStraw can filter up to 1,000 gal | 4,000 L. This would mean, if you used the LifeStraw every day, for all of your drinking water, it would last for approximately five years. If you just use it for travel and outdoor activities, it will last much longer than 5 years.
