Frontier Pro water filterFrontier Pro Water Filter

This filter can be connected to almost anything using the universal connectivity system. The Frontier Pro filter will connect directly to any water bottle with a 28mm opening (such as a Platypus® or standard spring water bottle). Using the tube connection feature, you can connect to the drink tube of your hydration system, or drink from any open container or water source. Since you drink directly from the unit, there is no chance of confusing inlet and outlet tubes which could result in cross contamination. The Frontier Pro can also be set up in a “gravity flow” mode to filter water unattended.

55 gallon heaterWater heater filter adapterOptional Water Heater Adapter for the FrontierPro Water Filter

Virtually every home has water stored in the water heater that can be used in the event of an emergency. The difficult part is getting the water out of the heater tank when the water pressure is off. Water can be collected from the drain valve, but it must be filtered before it can be consumed in order to remove harmful sediments that have built up in the water heater.

This ingenious device will turn your FrontierPro Water Filter into a water heater filter. In the event of an emergency, simply attach your FrontierPro filter to the water heater drain valve using this adapter to provide safe, clean water for your family.

X-Pack water filterThe X-Pack Water Filter System.

The X-Pack is the larger brother of the LifePack Emergency Water Filter System (we also carry the SeaPak desalinator system).

The X-Pack provides up to 55 liters of clean drinking water from nearly any surface water source over a ten-day period. Purity levels are comparable to reverse osmosis systems, and the filter meets EPA standards for the removal of biological pathogens (viruses, bacteria, cysts). This unit has been used by soldiers to drink the floodwaters in New Orleans. You can trust the X-Pack to provide safe and simple water filtration wherever you are. The filter life of the X-Pack is 10 days.

How it works:

The X-Pack is simple enough for a child to use. Just put dirty water into the red port, and add one sports syrup charge into the green port. That's it. The water will be filtered by the advanced forward osmosis membrane as it is drawn into the X-Pack's inner chamber. When the process is complete, simply pour the clean drink out and restart the system. No purifying chemicals are required, nor is any power input needed other than the sports drink syrup charges that drive the filtration process by osmosis.

The Sea-Pack Emergency DesalinatorSea-Pack Emergency Desalinator


Generates a lifesaving drink directly from salt water.

The SeaPack emergency water desalinator makes a survival drink from any available water supply: salt water, brackish water, muddy water, or questionable fresh water for up to 10 days.

The key to SeaPack's reliability is its ease of operation: simply fill the filter's red port with dirty water and squirt one of the enclosed syrup bottles into the green port. The forward osmosis membrane filter does the work by attracting pure water molecules to the electrolytes in the syrup which then pass through the pores of the membrane. 97% of salts are rejected and mud and pathogens are also rejected to EPA standards. Since there is no pumping, the SeaPack won't clog and requires no energy to operate.

From salt water, the SeaPack will produce 1/2 liter (16 fl oz) of lifesaving drink in five hours from each syrup bottle. The filtered drink is high in sugars to help provide the calories needed in a survival situation. This forward osmosis technology is trusted and used by boaters, aviators, and U.S. military personnel, and has been used around the world.

Use any water source, even muddy or brackish water to generate clear drink. Purity levels are comparable to reverse osmosis systems, and the filter meets EPA standards for the removal of biological pathogens (viruses, bacteria, cysts). This technology is being used by our military's elite fighting forces, and NASA to provide for their hydration needs.

Water treatmentWater Treatment Concentrate


Aquamira Water Treatment is now available in a convenient and economical 2oz. size and is perfect for treating stored water in 55 gallon or smaller drums. It is also ideal for treating water in RV storage tanks, animal drinking troughs, on site water storage tanks such as cisterns or camp water systems. Aquamira Water Treatment treats drinking water using chlorine dioxide to kill bacteria, control the build up of slime and improve the taste of stored water. Each kit contains everything you need to treat up to 60 gallons of water.

When used according to instructions, and kept in a sealed container, treated water needs no further treatment for 5 years.

Chlorine dioxide, a well-established disinfectant, is the active ingredient in Aquamira® Water Treatment. Chlorine dioxide does not contain  iodine and is chlorine free. The unique formula works by releasing nascent oxygen, a highly active form of oxygen, which is a strong oxidant and a powerful germicidal agent. Chlorine dioxide has been used by municipal water treatment plants to kill a variety of waterborne pathogens since the late 1940s.

Chlorine dioxide does not discolor water, nor does it give water an unpleasant taste. In fact, chlorine dioxide is used to improve the taste of water by neutralizing unpleasant flavors.
