Product Information

Full details

The Camelbak Lifestraw Reservoir Carbon Filter 2-Pack is an essential maintenance component for hikers, backpackers, and outdoor enthusiasts who utilize Camelbak reservoirs integrated with Lifestraw technology. By effectively reducing chlorine, bad taste, and odors, these filters ensure your water remains crisp and fresh throughout your journey; however, note that these carbon filters do not remove bacteria or parasites on their own and should be paired with the primary Lifestraw hollow fiber filter for complete purification.

FAQs

How often should I replace these filters?

It is recommended to replace the carbon filter every 2 months or after approximately 40 gallons (150 liters) of water usage.

Do these filters remove bacteria?

No, these are carbon filters specifically for taste and odor. They must be used in conjunction with a hollow fiber membrane filter to remove bacteria and parasites.

Can I wash the filter to make it last longer?

No, the carbon filter cannot be cleaned or backflushed. Once it is spent, it must be replaced.

Is this compatible with standard Camelbak reservoirs?

This filter is designed specifically for reservoirs that have the Lifestraw integration port.

Does the filter need to be submerged to work?

Yes, the filter must be properly seated in the housing to ensure all water passes through the carbon media before reaching the mouthpiece.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty drawing water through the straw

The filter may be saturated or clogged. Try removing the carbon filter temporarily; if flow improves, the filter needs to be replaced.

Water still tastes like chlorine

The carbon filter has reached its capacity limit. Replace the filter with a fresh unit.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install your new filter, simply remove the existing carbon filter from the reservoir's filtration housing and snap the new one into the designated slot. Ensure it is seated firmly to prevent bypass.

Compatibility: This filter is specifically designed for the Camelbak reservoir systems that feature the Lifestraw integration. Always verify your reservoir model supports the carbon filter insert before purchase.

Care: Store the filters in a cool, dry place. Once a filter has been used, it should be kept moist or replaced if it has been allowed to dry out for an extended period, as dried-out carbon filters may lose their effectiveness.
