Why change

Two filter stages. Two operating principles.

The Squeeze combines two different filtration technologies. The hollow fiber membrane with a pore size of 0.2 µm mechanically retains bacteria, protozoa, microplastics, and particles. An electro-adsorptive filter fleece is used to bind particularly small contaminants. Its fibers carry a positive surface charge, which allows them to bind even very small, negatively charged contaminants such as viruses to their surface. In this way, mechanical filtration and electro-adsorption complement each other in a two-stage filter system.

  • ElectroadsorptionCharged fiber surfaces bind the smallest impurities.
  • Alternating signal SqueezeThe filtering process requires significantly more force than usual.
  • CapacityThe maximum capacity is 500 liters.

Which filter element do you need?

Your filter over time.

  1. After every use Dry promptly.

    Press air through the filter 2–3 times to push out any remaining moisture inside. Then remove the filter, leave it open to dry completely, and store it separately from the other components.

  2. Up to 500 liters Maximum capacity.

    The maximum filter capacity is 500 liters. The actual service life depends on the quality of the filtered water.

  3. Flow blocked. Replace filter.

    If water can no longer be pushed through the filter, it is time to replace the filter element. The Squeeze replacement filter fits 500 ml and 1 liter bottles.

  4. Storage Best before at least 2 years

    When stored correctly, the filter element has a shelf life of at least 2 years. After use and subsequent storage, it is important to dry the filter element completely and promptly.

Capacity and storage according to the instruction manual.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why switch at all?

A water filter is a consumable product: with every liter filtered, impurities accumulate in the filter material. Over time, this becomes noticeable through a decrease in filter performance – a clear sign that the filter element should be replaced.

How do I know when the filter needs to be changed?

With the Selfpress, you will know that a filter change is due when the filtering process requires significantly more force than usual. How quickly this point is reached depends on the water quality: the cloudier the water being filtered, the sooner the filter may become clogged.

Which element fits my device?

For the Selfpress 500 ml: Replacement filter. For the Selfpress XL 800 ml: Replacement filter XL. For the Squeeze 500 ml and 1 liter: Squeeze Replacement filter. There is no replacement filter element for the Straw.

How long does a filter element last?

The Squeeze filter element lasts for up to a maximum of 500 liters.

Is it the bottle or the pouch that's included?

No. This is a replacement filter element, not a complete water filter. Bottle or bag are not included.

How long can I store a filter for?

Up to 500 liters. This is the maximum value under optimal conditions: the murkier or more contaminated the water, the faster the filter clogs.

Can I use soap or vinegar essence for cleaning?

No. Neither soap nor vinegar essence may be used to clean the filter element. These can permanently damage the filter. Clean water is sufficient.

Where can I find the lab results?
