Off-grid Whole house rain water filtration system

Off-grid Whole house rain water filtration system



This is our 2nd update on our whole house rainwater filtration system running 100% off grid meaning off solar. Perfect for an system. Can by within a City or even out a cabin totally off-grid. Rainwater is your best source for drinking water out there. 3 stage filtration get 99% of sediments removed on top the carbon filter reduces any chlorine you might had added to your rainwater to kill off any bacteria. Better would be UV light at the end of the loop to be added. For now we do use chlorine but longer term we will also be adding the bigger UV light which also run’s of 12DC like the pump itself. Both Solar Panels charge a deep-cycle battery so it’s setup for long term.

How To Make a Water Filter In The Wild

How To Make a Water Filter In The Wild



Disclaimer. This water filter will not make the water SAFE. It will only render it clear and make it more palatable. you must boil it afterwards or use another form of proper disinfection. SODIS or Solar Disinfection would work.

In this video I go through the processes of constructing a primitive filter utilizing natural recourses such as charcoal from a fire, moss, and sand. I use a soda bottle as the filter container to show you the individual layers and to see the water seep through the layers.

DIY Water Filtration System For Cabin Or Camp

DIY Water Filtration System For Cabin Or Camp



Lonnie shows here how he built (and how you can too) a water filtration system that is great for a small cabin or camp or even to have for emergencies in town. The total cost to build was MUCH cheaper that the professionally manufactured filtration systems but yet it is every bit as effective since it uses the same ceramic filters as they use. It is a very simple project and uses the tools that you may already have.

Unlimited Filtered Drinking Water For Less Than $35 (Doulton/Berkey)



In this video I show you how I made a gravity fed water filter for under $35. It’s a “how to” with the supplies needed and the cost of the project. I made this in less than 1/2 hour so it’s quick, easy and cheap. It also may just save your life some day so it’s super important.

You can use this filter with a Doulton or Berkey filter and you can add the fluoride filter to the bottom if that’s a concern.
