Open Source Water Filtration System, First Run

Posted on by Addison Watson


This is part of the water filtration system for the Seed Eco-Home by the Open Building Institute. Not shown are the actual filters, and an ozonator that injects ozone into the cisterns.

DIY Low Cost Gravity Water Filter for Hiking and Backpacking

Posted on by Addison Watson


I normally use a Saywer Squeeze system to filter my water when I am out hiking and backpacking. If you have ever used one, you know that filling the bag that comes with it is next to impossible.
