Katadyn Hiker Pro Water Microfilter

Item #EXT0046 | 84 in Stock

water station

By Ranked #23 - Water Treatment April 1, 2009

i found the easiest way to use the hiker pro was to sit on a rock and use 2 containers in between my legs, one for dirty one for clean, the dirty water i let sit for a few minutes to let any sediment settle, then i put a coffee filter over the prefilter secured with a rubber band to prevent any tiny particles from being sucked in. the water started out dirty and rust colored, and came out clear and clean, and since i used a coffee filter both the main filter and the prefilter look brand new. just remember to run a partial bleach solution through the entire system after each trip and let dry completely before storing. excellent product, 10/10.
