Alexa Pure Pro can be easily cleaned using a soft cloth for quick and effective exterior cleanup. For optimal filter functioning, keep filters moist at all times to avoid clogging issues.
The Alexa Pure Pro gravity filter is an extremely reliable stainless steel solution, and works superbly whether at home, in the wilderness, or even off grid.
Installation
The Alexa Pure Pro gravity filter system filters water through two chambers and a hybrid ceramic shell, providing high quality drinking water filtration for everyday use as well as camping or off-grid living. It reduces 206 contaminants such as fluoride, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and bacteria for off-grid living environments.
One of the best features of this water filtration system is how easy it is to maintain and clean. The stainless steel chambers can be quickly wiped clean while its hybrid ceramic shell can be scrubbed down using a scouring pad; any use of soap could potentially harm its filter.
The Alexa Pure’s unique spigot is an impressive feature over other filters, as it quickly delivers clean water out of its reservoir. Plus, this filter holds 2.25 gallons of clean drinking water! Although you can store dry for some time between uses, we advise refueling with clean drinking water periodically so as to maintain peak performance.
Maintenance
Contrary to many other filter systems, this one requires minimal upkeep. Cleaning it with soapy water and a sponge should suffice, with any external surfaces being wiped down before the hybrid ceramic shell filter being scrubbed using a scouring pad (no soap required!). In addition, it would be prudent to scrub inside of bottom holding chamber.
Once the system has been flushed and sanitized, it’s ready for use. A couple of batches will likely be necessary to filter all of the alcohol out, while you may notice longer filter times than usual from top to bottom.
Alcohol has the tendency of filling up the pores of a filter and slowing it down, so storing it empty if not using right away will extend its life and maintain peak performance. Flushing it after filter changes or when leaving for extended periods can also extend its performance and lifespan.
Replacement
The Alexa Pure Pro gravity filter is a relatively new addition to the gravity filtration market. Compelling Berkey in terms of performance while costing significantly less to purchase and operate makes this an excellent option for camping or off grid living.
Change filters with ease: first unscrew and steady the upper chamber with one hand before reaching underneath and unfastening the wing nut that holds your old filter in place, pull out and replace with new one, scrubping its exterior using a scouring pad in clean water (never soap!) in order to reduce mineral build-up along its hybrid ceramic shell that protects it.
The Alexa Pure Pro can filter 2.25 gallons of dirty water per minute and is ideal for both well and city water supplies, eliminating hormones, bacteria, protozoa viruses and radioactivity from water supply sources.
Final Words
The Alexa Pure Pro gravity fed, off grid water filter can turn 2 gallons into clean drinking water in minutes. Its easy use and storage make it ideal for emergencies or camping gear; though its slow flow rate might take some getting used to. Furthermore, its filter clogs more readily due to muddy or gritty water than traditional taps do; thus it’s essential that it’s regularly rinsed out in order for its performance to remain optimal.
