Best Water Purifiers for Travel

When it comes to traveling, drinking pure water is a huge deal because contaminated water can destroy your health in no time and sabotage your plans to have a great vacation experience. Although it is easy to get bottled water wherever you go, it is not a cost effective option. This is where the use of a travel water purifier comes in.

Travel water purifiers are portable and so can easily be taken with you while traveling, whether you are traveling abroad or going on hiking or camping trips. When you are traveling to places that don’t maintain the required levels of hygiene and sanitation, it is very important to take a water purifier with you so that you don’t fall sick from drinking dirty water.

A water purifier works differently from a regular water filter in that it changes the composition of the water, making it drinkable, rather than just removing impurities from the water. To achieve this, water purifiers use a variety of techniques such as osmosis, Ultraviolet light and the use of chemicals such as chlorine and iodine. These devices that sometimes run on batteries or a solar charge are capable of purifying hundreds of bottles of water per charge.

 

Here are some water purifiers that we recommend for travelers:
