"First,
we continue to get impressive service from your SSFx sand filter
we installed in the small village of La Cienaga in central Mexico.
The filter has been operating for a year-and-a-half and has continued
to produce bacteria-free water under difficult circumstances.
Those circumstances are that the source water has an extremely
high sediment content - at its worst the water is yellow/orange
in color.
Even when the community well was flooded with sediment
during the rainy season and delivered very dirty
water to the sand filter, the SSFx continued to
produce clear, bacteria free water."
-Larry Siegel, 2008

Future Filters' slow sand filter systems are ideal for
private home, or small remote communities, especially when combined in
numbers for greater output. We
offer two models: our patented and highly acclaimed SSFx
provides up to 450 gallons per day, and the SSF-1.25 supplies up 1800
gallons per day -- more than enough
for one or two families. These filters provide all the features of our
larger filters, including long filter runs, easy harrowing cleaning,
and simple flow control. These features make it possible for any
homeowner to install, operate and maintain a slow sand filter without
outside "experts" or expensive ongoing material costs. The SSF/x also
comes in a Pilot style for use in slow sand filter pilot studies.
