Hello Diana,

Thank you for taking the time to comment on this post. This particular type of filter is not distributed in the U.S., but here is the website for Filterpure http://www.filterpurefilters.org/. They work with the organization (Wine to Water) that we partner with for The W3 Project http://www.filtersfast.com/w3/ in Haiti. We cannot honestly advise on how to replicate such a filter, but if you would like to reach out to Filterpure to see how you can start a science project for your school, they will probably be able to give you sound and practical advice. All the best with your project.

I saw this and was so fascinated . I f these filters are not for sell how can one get them? I am thinking of starting a school project where what is filtered by local village schools in Uganda or by women in these villages. Most of the illnesses come from unclean water. So how can i start this kind of project???

Hi Stephen,

After researching, we found out that this disclaimer is from the company: “PLEASE NOTE: Our filters are NOT FOR SALE in the United States. They are locally produced by potters in the Dominican Republic and Tanzania for use in those countries.” If we find something like this that is sold in U.S., we will be sure to post that information for our visitors. Thanks for your interest in our post.

We’d like to thank everyone for reading the post, and we can’t blame you for your interest in FilterPure filters. Unfortunately, FilterPure doesn’t sell these filters in the United States.

From their site:

Our group is interested in your filterpure clay pots. We live on the Atlantic coast and deal with multiple hurricanes on a regular basis. We would be interested in purchasing these pots for our emergency water filters for after the storms. The current filters on the market are expensive and out of the reach of the common people in our area. Please send me more info.
Thanks.

I have a friend from El Salvador who just told me about these wonderful filters used in her country. I live in a hurricane prone state and would love to have this water filter on hand in the event of an emergency. I also work with the LDS and community preparedness. Would you please send me an order form or information on how I can purchase these filters. These filters could save lives right here in the USA as well as other countries. Thanks so very much.
