Platypus Cleanstream Gravity Filter System

Item #CAS0453 | 0 in Stock

custom clean stream

By Ranked #259 - Water Filters July 20, 2009

this is my version of the clean stream. i attached a drinking tube directly to the clean side of the filter, eliminating the need for the clean bag. makes the process simpler and more light weight. however, it takes a bit more effort to backwash the filter.

Hmm, to backwash couldn't you just reverse the direction of the filter (leaving all the hoses and bag in the order they are in - just detach them and flip the filter, right?). I find the hoses fairly easy to detach/attach.
