Product Information

In excellent condition, owned it for three years but i only used on a long backpacking trip couple of times. No damage what so ever. Only thing is that instruction manual got wet and got a little wrinkly.

Questions

Question

Can you tell me about your trip? How was the filter stored? Was it protected from freezing?

Answer

It was a summer backpacking trip in CA, John Muir trail. There was no freezing or any damage to the pump. Everything is in excellent condition.

Question

You mentioned that you haven't used this purifier in 3 years. If that is correct, then most likely it will require having the filter cartridge replaced for obvious reasons. If this is the case, then an additional expenditure of around $180 will be required to safely use this purifier. That being said, I am wondering if you are willing to lower your asking price, because $220 $180 equals more than the price of a new Guardian Purifier.

Answer

The filter is as good as new. and there is no need to change the filter. The cartridge life is 10,000 L. I didn't really have to filter dirty, muddy, or questionable water at all on my trip. It was all running creek water in the High Sierras. No drop on the price.

Question

Was the filter sterilized before storage? Also have you attempted to pump any water through it recently to make sure that the filter hasn't dried out?

Answer

Yes. it's. I did use it this summer for two days of backpacking trip. It worked just fine and it's stored properly after that. No issue's what so ever with this filter. I understand your concerns as a fellow outdoor enthusiast. I won't sell it for this price if there is anything wrong with it. In fact, i truely don't want to sell it because it's technically new and such an awesome filter. thank you for your interest!
