But we could have.All of the Sawyer water filters and purifiers come with a MILLION GALLON GUARANTEE! Dont believe us? Well its true. It is what makes the Sawyer water filters and purifiers the best on the market. They can be backwashed. So lets say that you take your filter on a 3 month trip with you. So dont let clean water be an issue any longer; buy a Sawyer Water Filter or Purifier.Backwashing is not required often unless you are filtering very turbid water. Backwashing is as simple as reversing the filter flow with clean water. Forcing the clean water back through the filter flushes out all of the contaminants and only takes a few seconds. If you are accustomed to a ceramic filter, the cleaning ratio is approximately 20:1. In other words, by the 20th time you would have cleaned a ceramic filter, it would be time to backwash this filter for the first time. NO REPLACEMENT FILTERS OR CARTRIDGES ARE NECESSARY. We trust you will thoroughly enjoy the ease and extra protection this proven next generation technology offers you.No Pumping No Chemicals No Waiting No Worries
