Are there different types of filters for different water conditions (or just one "do all" filter)?

Just one replacement filter-The Hiker Pro replacement cartridge. It will handle dirty water, but the removable filter protector needs to be cleaned with the provided sponge when it gets hard to pump. The Hiker Pro is an all-conditions filter----it will handle dirty water, as well as clean water. With any filter system, it is always best to filter the cleanest available water: thus helping filter longevity, and cuting down on cleaning.
