Pure Water 2 Go

 

Well, I blogged a bit back about ordering a refillable plastic water bottle that came with a screw-in filter.   You basically fill it up with tap water, screw on the filter/lid and squeeze out fresh tasting water.   A great idea for those on-the-go and especially handy at the gym.

I got my two bottles today and wanted to share how the process works.   First, you take the black filter and snap it into the cap, like this:

Then you up the bottle with tap water and squeeze out the water into the sink.  This flushes everything out to get it ready for personal use.    Fill it up with cold water and go.  It really is this simple.

The bottle says it's good for 200 refills, which saves me about $200 from buying bottled water at the gym.   And you can order filter refills through their website, so the bottle itself is reusable.   And recyclable if that day should ever come.

I keep one bottle filled and chilled in the fridge at all time.    Really, I couldn't be happier with this product.

Brita actually had its own product like that. I owned one and loved it but the white plastic outside became dirty so easily that I was always cleaning it with Bon-Ami. It degraded pretty badly and I threw it away. Sadly, they no longer make them and I still have a filter left.

Where did you find it?

Try a Swellz TapSack instead! They are great on the go and will last indefinately. The TapSack is environmentally friendly, fashionable and actually FUN to use and wear. Personalized hydration!

There is another one called Aqua Gear that a has filter span of 700 gallons. The only place I have spotted it was on eBay recently.

Thought this might help,
