    Drinking water filters are primarily used to soften water and remove chemicals such as chlorine to make a safe fresh bottled quality water.. Some scientists believe that the contaminants found in drinking unfiltered drinking water can be harmful to your health, even increasing the risk of developing cancer. The most common problem with unfiltered water, however, is a bad taste or smell. Water filters are also used by recreational hikers, by aid organizations during humanitarian emergencies, and by the military. These filters are usually small, portable and light (1-2 pounds or less) and usually filter water by working a mechanical hand pump, although some use a siphon drip system to force water through. Dirty water is pumped via a screen-filtered flexible silicon tube through a specialized filter, ending up in a water bottle (or other container, such as a Camel Back). These types of filters work to remove bacteria, protozoa and cysts, all of which can cause disease. Popular and reliable makers of these small, portable water filters include General Ecology, Innova Pure Water, Katadyn,Mountain Safety Research, and Pure Water 2GO. Filters include fine meshes, which must be replaced, and ceramic filters which must have their outside abraded off when it becomes clogged with impurities. These water filters should not be confused with devices or tablets that are water purifiers. Water purifiers satisfy higher EPA standards, and also remove viruses, such as hepatitis A and rotavirus, among others. In a domestic emergency, where water needs will last beyond those of stored, bottled water, a device that is specifically certified as a water purifier, and not a water filter, is preferred.
