Directly from Aqua Research:
The H2gO Water Disinfectant Generator resulted from a quest to create the best personal water purifier in the world. H2gO is a pocket-sized chlorine generator for individuals, families, and small groups that converts common salt into a powerful sterilizing solution capable of killing waterborne microorganisms. Many city water utilities use the same core technology.
The H2gO Global is a suitable choice for any of the following circumstances:
Individuals from developing nations who are replacing the CDC's Safe Water System (i.e. bottled bleach)
Water that is already pre-filtered
A principal goal of treating only virus and bacteria
Those who may be turned off by a possible taste of chlorine
No issue with multi-dosing for treatment of protozoa
Common usage of a 20L container
The H2gO GLOBAL has volume settings of 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 liters, with a dose of 2.5 mg/L free available chlorine, in alignment with Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Safe Water System requirements common in developing nations. One battery charge will deliver 300 liters, and the device has a lifetime capacity of 124,000 liters (32,000 gallons) with no replacement parts needed.
The H2gO GLOBAL is certified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as meeting their most basic classification for Household Water Treatment Systems. A single dose meets WHO treatment standards for viruses and bacteria, while in-house tests show multiple doses inactivate protozoa like Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Independent evaluations are in process to obtain approval at the higher level WHO classification as a "protective" water treatment system.
General Warnings
Wait the full appropriate treatment time. Do not add more water to the container after the treatment process. Adding water after this step will dilute the strength of the treatment solution and increase the risk of contamination. Do not add drink mixes to the treated water before treatment time is complete or treatment process may stop. To prevent drinking any contaminated water, the threads on the container and the cap must be rinsed with treated water.
Do not use seawater.
The H2gO does not make drinkable water out of salty or brackish water. Choose the cleanest water available. Avoid water sources with high levels of chemical contamination, such as mine tailing ponds and sources near large agricultural operations. The H2gO does not reduce heavy metals or high levels of chemical contamination. Read the instruction manual and know to how use this product effectively.
Do not touch your eyes while using the purifier. The H2gO creates a chemical oxidant that can damage your eyes. The same oxidant can also irritate skin and permanently stain clothing. Keep at least 12in away from your face and clothing while running and pouring into your water container. Rinse hands and purifier after use.
