How to Use:
1. Use the filter daily- this will maintain the water level 5 cm above the sand (measured during the
pause period) and keep the bio- layer alive.
2. Ensure water quality is from the best possible source. Always use the same source if possible.
If water is very dirty allow the water to settle for 24 hours then pour the clear water
through a fine woven-cloth (folded many times).
3. Ensure the receiving container is clean
4. Add 1 to 5 drops of bleach for each litre (or up to 1 teaspoon per gallon)- for example, if
the container is 20 litres then add at least 20 drops.
5. Remove the filter lid
6. Slowly pour contents of bucket into filter, without letting the sediments, and then replace the lid.
7. When filtration is complete, cover receiving container.
8. Repeat process at least once a day.
9. Clean the spout daily.
10. Do not store food on the diffuser plate.
11. Keeps animals away from the spout and filtered water.
• The better the raw water is, the better the filtered water will be.
