Filtering BPA Free Sport Bottle

If you’re always on the go or need an eco-friendly water bottle for workouts or hiking, try the Filtered Sport Bottle from The Water Geeks.

Technically a lot of tap water is perfectly safe to drink fresh from the tap – no filter required. But if you’re concerned, this bottle is a good option. One, it cuts out disposable water bottles, and two it filters the water as you drink.
The bottle is made with food grade, BPA free plastic and comes in two sizes. The filter will treat up to 80 gallons of water, about 3 months of use under normal conditions. The level 2 filter removes 90% of chlorine, bad taste and odor, as well as a significant proportion of heavy metals, including lead, mercury, and copper. Plus this bottle will sit steady in most standard bicycle racks, backpack bottle holders, and car cup holders.
All you do is fill the bottle, head out, and drink when you want. Each bottle comes with one filter. Replacement filters are available and are actually a pretty good deal – a 2 pack for about $15 (6 months worth of filtering).
