Whether you’re hiking deep into the backcountry, traveling abroad, camping with family, or preparing for emergencies, Versa Flow is built to remove the hassle from finding safe water.
No pumping. No complicated setup. Just water you can trust.
At only 6 ounces, this versatile filtration system is lightweight enough for any pack while delivering advanced multi-stage filtration designed for real-world conditions.
Perfect for:

Fast Flow. Reliable Protection.
Versa Flow uses advanced hollow fiber membrane technology to help protect against harmful contaminants commonly found in streams, lakes, and questionable water sources.
Helps protect against:
- 99.999999% of harmful bacteria
- Giardia
- Cryptosporidium
- E. coli
- Protozoan cysts
Unlike many filters that restrict water flow through narrow core openings, Versa Flow filters water across the outside of the hollow fiber membrane—dramatically improving flow rate while maintaining dependable filtration performance.
The result:
More water, faster—with less effort.
The filter is also fully backflushable, helping maintain strong flow performance and extending filter life over time.
No pumps.
No batteries.
No iodine tablets.
No complicated maintenance.
Just simple, dependable filtration you can rely on again and again.

Came in good...
I only recently received this unit, but it came without incident and was well-packaged. There is a window to inspect the filter that I like, and also it is one of the few units with a carbon filter add-on. Both the filter and replacement carbon filters are reasonably priced. I only wish that the carbon filters were somehow cheaper to ship, since they become microbial media quickly (if they are comparable to water bottle filters, they need continuous flushing or, for most of us doing sporadic trips, regular replacement).

Water taste...
Haven't used mine yet. I bought this because I have used a friends and thought the water tasted better through it. Will be ready for spring this year. Also sent another to cousin now biking/hiking in Patagonia.

Basis for my Gravity and Overall...
I really like the Versa Flow, especially with the carbon filter unit. They are the basis for my gravity filter systems (for myself and 4 adult children). I also use the carbon filter unit with my Sawyer Taps, which I use for attachment to kitchen faucets or outdoor hoses. In addition, I use Sidekicks for each person in the family (with additional carbon filters). All in all, this is the best overall system I have found (I've been working on this for years). Now to get a distiller... (I live in Hawaii and we're surrounded by salt water).

Much better than the...
I ditched the "S@wy3r" earlier this year because the filter would clog even in the clearest of water and was too much of a PITA to backflush. I used this on my most recent JMT trip with a friend, July 2020. My friends "Squeeze" filter clogged completely and couldn't be cleared, then his backup "Squeeze" filter started to clog and he couldn't backflush it; the filter would barely drip out water. This was the same reason I ditched S@wy3r and went with the HydroBlu VersaFlow. Now, I use and backflush my VersaFlow filter with the greatest of ease. My friend is now a believer and is ditching the Squeeze and getting the VersaFlow for our Mt. Whitney hike next month.

Prepping...just in case.
We purchased this water filter just in case things really get out of control. We have access to a water source on our property and wanted to make sure that we have clean water. We hope to never have to use this but are glad that we made the purchase.

Very well made product, totally trust it, but one...
It does leak on some threads unless very tight. There really needs just be a washer added to help prevent this. Im actually going to see if I can find one to fit.
