Wasserfeld water sterilization tablets are a chemical alternative to drinking water treatment. The active ingredients sodium hydrogen sulphate and sodium chloride turn any water into drinking water within 30 minutes. For your own safety, you should drink water that is already as clean as possible before the tablet is added, e.g. water from running water. Water that smells unpleasant or contains dead animals is not suitable.
The tablets are easy and uncomplicated to use. One tablet is sufficient for up to 100 liters of drinking water disinfection, but can also be used for less than 100 liters. It is dissolved in the water and should be left to stand for at least 30 minutes to achieve a sufficient effect. The resulting disinfectant solution can then be used to purify the drinking water. The purified water is odorless and tasteless and can be drunk without hesitation.
A positive feature is the individual packaging of the tablets, which guarantees a shelf life of 10 years for unopened tablets and enableseasy storage when traveling.
Overall, the water purification tablets scored very well, are a good alternative to natural water purification and are therefore a product worth recommending.
