Community Water Purifiers
High Volume Water Purification
PROVIDING SAFE DRINKING WATER TO COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE GLOBE
Icon LifeSaver's roots are firmly embedded in Humanitarian efforts after British inventor, Michael Pritchard, was inspired by two natural disasters to develop a way of getting clean, safe drinking water to people who desperately need it for survival.
Today we still provide large scale community water purifiers to communities with no or limited access to safe water, and are the trusted partner of Oxfam, UK Aid Direct and others. Our LifeSaver C1 model can sustain a community of 100 people for four purifying up to 500,000 litres before the filter cartridge needs replacing, while the LifeSaver C2 delivers up to one million litres, making it ideal for larger communities, refugee camps, schools and hospitals.
NOT JUST FOR EMERGENCIES
And, with around 1% of the UK's population living in rural or off-grid communities that are reliant on alternative water sources such as boreholes, rivers and streams, and rainwater harvesting, our large scale water solutions are in high demand locally too. The purification filters exceed the standards set by the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI), the organisation responsible for monitoring private water supplies.
Elsewhere in the world there are far higher numbers of households without reliable municipal water services:
| United Kingdom | 1% |
| Australia | 8% |
| New Zealand | 14% |
| Italy | 4% |
| Africa | 29% |
OFF GRID LIFESTYLE BY CHOICE
Our solutions aren't just for when there is no other option. We are seeing an increasing demand for our large scale purifiers from communities that have chosen to live off-grid. Some are disillusioned with, or mistrusting of government infrastructures, while others are striving for a more self-sufficient, sustainable or simple lifestyle, that brings them closer to nature. Whatever the circumstances, our community water purifiers provide safe drinking water for years.
ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE
Our range has also includes portable water purifier Bottles and Jerrycans, supplying clean water to military and outdoor adventure communities on the move.
