Description

The Outback Ready Emergency Water Filter is bundled with an additional replacement filter kit, giving you a second complete set of filters to have on hand when you need it. Each filter set has a capacity of up to 1,800 gallons, depending on source-water quality and use.

Proven Use Around the World: The Outback has been used by Peace Corps volunteers, missionary groups, and various NGOs in locations around the world. Watch this VIDEO about the Outback to learn more.

Designed for Emergency Preparedness: Rugged, portable, and gravity-powered, the Outback Ready is designed for emergency preparedness, disaster response, remote locations, base camps, and other situations where electricity and pressurized water may not be available. It can treat visually clear freshwater from streams, rivers, lakes, ponds, springs, collected rainwater, and untreated stored freshwater.

Third-Party Tested Performance: The Outback Ready uses a four-stage filtration process and has been third-party tested for microbiological reduction, including >99.9999% bacteria reduction, >99.99% cyst reduction, and >99.99% virus reduction. Its filtration media also reduces chlorine taste and odor and a range of other contaminants. See the Outback test results for complete performance data and testing conditions.

How It Works: No electricity or pressurized water connection is required. Pour source water into the upper chamber through the pre-filter net. Gravity moves the water through the four-stage filtration system and into the lower chamber, where the filtered water is ready to dispense.

More Than 24 Gallons Per Day: The gravity-fed Outback Ready can filter more than 24 gallons of water per day, making it a practical option for families, groups, emergency preparedness, and remote locations. Actual output can vary based on source-water quality, filter condition, and operating conditions.

  • One Outback Ready Emergency Water Filter (OB-25RDY) — four-stage, gravity-powered filtration system

Works great for dirty water in Tanzania!

"I sent my friend in Tanzania an Outback Plus filtration system since his water is seriously contaminated. He and his wife made a video comparing the water from his faucet with the water he dispensed from the Outback."

Purchase the system for when

"Purchase the system for when the shit hits the fan! I have a water source but it’s not pure. This system hopefully will do what your marketing system says it will? Anyway, thanks, hope I don’t dehydrate? Lol!"

Peter M. (5/5)

It filters pool water!

"Living in a State that has tropical storms amd hurricanes, being surrounded by salt water, I needed a way to filter my chlorinated pool water in emergencies. You just never know. Tbe assembly of the Outback Plus was a breeze. I did a pool water test, and it removed ALL the chlorine! From 6ppm to ZERO. Our family feels much safer now that we have an unlimited source of fresh water in an emergency."

Q&A

I have had this system for about a year or so. Is it normal to see black sediment at the bottom where there should be filtered water? It was so gross. I am scared to even buy another set because I dont want to waste money on it for it to not actually filter.
Thanks for reaching out. What you’re seeing is most likely harmless carbon sediment from the filter. This can happen if the filters weren’t thoroughly flushed before use. The system uses activated carbon, and a small amount of black particles can come loose initially. We recommend removing the filters and flushing them well, then running and discarding 1–2 full batches of water. After that, it should run clear. This isn’t a failure of the system—just a common setup step that can be missed. If you still see buildup after flushing, feel free to reach out, and we’ll help further.
