The "dirty" side of the filter will indeed allow bacteria to grow - a required step to prevent this is to occasional perform a front-side wash (per manual), fill with normal water and empty it again or simply use sterilizing fluid. On another note, the unused shelf life for the filters is 3 years. So, it's not a simple matter of stocking up on these for an indefinite period. I probably wouldn't use this thing for normal daily use, but in an emergency situation. But how often does that really happen to most of us? If you buy this now for future use, what do you do with it if there was no need to use it within the 3 year shelf life? |
