Dosage & Usage Instructions

How to Use:

1. Filter Heavy Sediment First: If water is visibly dirty, pre-filter through a clean cloth, bandana, or pre-filter to remove large floating particulates.

2. Add Tablet: Drop 1 tablet per 2 Liters (if clear) or 1 tablet per 1 Liter (if cold/cloudy) into your container.

3. Mix & Flush Cap Threads: Agitate until dissolved. Loosen the cap slightly and tilt the bottle so a small amount of treated water splashes over the bottle threads and cap rim.

4. Wait 30 Minutes: Allow the container to sit unopened for 30 minutes before drinking (extend to 60 minutes if water is near freezing).

Note: NaDCC chemical tablets do not eliminate Cryptosporidium oocysts or heavy metals. Pair with a  0.1 micron physical filter for complete full-spectrum field filtration.
