Fast Flow. Reliable Protection.
Versa Flow is engineered for a smoother, easier filtration experience without sacrificing performance. Using advanced hollow fiber membrane technology, it filters water through thousands of microscopic pores that help protect against harmful contaminants commonly found in backcountry and questionable water sources.
Filters up to:
- 99.9999% of harmful bacteria
- 99.99% of Giardia and protozoan cysts
- Cryptosporidium
- E. coli
Unlike many filters that restrict water flow through narrow core openings, Versa Flow filters water along the outside of the hollow fiber membrane—dramatically increasing flow rate and improving ease of use.
The result:
Faster, more dependable filtration with less effort.
Built to Last
Versa Flow is designed for long-term reliability in real-world conditions. The filter can be easily backflushed to clear sediment and maintain strong flow performance over time.
No replacement cartridges.
No batteries.
No pumps.
No iodine tablets.
Just simple, dependable filtration you can use again and again.
Lightweight Confidence Anywhere
Whether you’re filling up from a mountain stream, traveling abroad, or preparing for emergencies, Versa Flow helps remove the uncertainty from finding clean water.

Love this filter!
I went through two Sawyer Squeeze filters that both became moldy because it was impossible to tell if they were dry inside after backflushing and airing out. I was super frustrated about that. Then I read a review of Versa Flow on SectionHiker.com and learned that it has a clear window so you can actually see if it's clear or not. Game changer. I've had this filter now for about as long as I had my two Sawyers and it is still perfect. Added to that vital (IMO) feature, the Versa Flow is so much better because you can attach bottles to both ends, unlike the Sawyers where you have to hold it and let it drip into another bottle. And of course you can use a CNOC bag with either filter but the fact that the filter comes without bags means you can choose whatever bag or bottle you want to use for your dirty water. Highly recommend the CNOC bag because it is so so so easy to fill, compared with the tiny small-mouth bags that come with the Sawyers that are darned near impossible to fill in ponds or even streams and rivers if there isn't a veritable cascade coming off a rock that you can use to pour water into your bag. Sure, you can use a cup or something like that, but that takes quite a bit of time so why bother with that when you can get the CNOC bag and fill it in 10 seconds or less? Bottom line: don't get a Sawyer, get this awesome Versa Flow.

Works with Dasani...
So far I really like the Versa Flow. Good flow rate, no extra parts needed like a Sawyer, does exactly what you need it to. For those looking for an easily-available water bottle (like at a gas station or convenience store when thru-hiking) with threads that fit exactly on the Versa Flow without leaking, Dasani water bottles work well...and happen to be a size/shape that I prefer over SmartWater.

Perfect filter, just needs a little tweak…
Very happy with this filter but like others, had an issue with leaking if now screwed on super tight. Solved this issue by adding a silicone garden hose washer. Now I have the perfect filter. Thanks HydroBlu.

Can’t replace filters they are never in...
Been waiting for replacement filters and activated carbon filters to be in stock for months now. I email and get a expected date they will be in stock and when that comes I get told about her 4-6 weeks. I check every day hoping something changes and nothing. I only bought this filter because of the way the activated filter works with it and was promised they would be in stock soon if I purchased and here i sit waiting. I prolly should have just purchased the platypus filter with the carbon filter and just used it as a gravity filter. If I can’t find hydroblu activated carbon filters in the next two weeks for my trip coming up I am just buying a platypus filter.

Versa Flow Rules!
Love the view window to check the filter status and the ability to add a carbon filter. Works great with CNOC for a complete system!

Good Water...
Just received so have not used on the trails. But I have tested the Versa Flow Water Filter at home and am impressed with the rate of water flow thru it. Much much better than my Sawyer Mini. The weight of the filter is the same as the Sawyer Mini-also good. Only challenge now is to find a 12-16 oz water bottle that will fit the filter’s screw-threads. The Crystal Geyser bottles I use do not fit and water will leak around the threads. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Looking forward to using the filter in the field
