Homemade Water Filter – Video Response

This is a field test of a very simple and inexpensive homemade water filter setup made from a recycled coffee creamer container, a Brita water filter and one 2 inch rubber O-ring. The setting for this test is beautiful Norway Lake located inside Puzzle Lake Provincial Park, Canada. Please rate this video. Thanks for watching! Please watch the original video by NCHiker1970 for full DIY instructions: www.youtube.com Special thanks to NCHiker1970 for help with this video

Prototype unit I built to help me get a better feel for what kind of filtration rate (GPM/sq.ft.) I might expect to see on a larger system (think, rainwater collection.) This one only sees about .5 GMP/sq.ft. which is pretty low. Gonna try different amounts of media. Looking to get 2… 3 max GPM/sq.ft. Gravel, sand, and activated carbon. The ability to backwash is nice, but again, it’s really not necessary unless you’re constantly running something like, oh, mud, through the filter. The idea though, was that the backwash water could be collected (hence that drain pipe in the middle that comes out the side), the solids allowed to settle out, then run the clear water back though the filter.

    I would like to express appreciation to you just for rescuing me from this type of circumstance. After exploring through the the net and coming across suggestions which are not productive, I assumed my life was gone. Being alive devoid of the solutions to the problems you’ve resolved through this website is a critical case, as well as ones which might have in a negative way affected my entire career if I hadn’t discovered your site. Your actual capability and kindness in handling a lot of things was valuable. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had not encountered such a stuff like this. I’m able to now relish my future.
