What do Aquatabs eliminate?

Aquatabs have been independently tested, and are shown to effectively lower rates of waterborne illness by eliminating harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and giardia cysts.

What is the active ingredient in Aquatabs?

Each Aquatab contains sodium dichloroisocyanurate, commonly referred to as NaDCC. Aquatabs dissolve to release a measured dose of hypochlorous acid (free available chlorine) that is universally recognized as a safe and effective water disinfectant.

Do Aquatabs contain Iodine?

Aquatabs contain no iodine which make them safe for sensitive groups such as children, pets, and pregnant women.

Aquatabs are shelf-stable and have a unique expiration date depending on the date of manufacture. We make sure to keep all listings up to date at all times with the current batch's expiration date.

Can Aquatabs be used on cloudy or turbid water?

The more sediment or organic matter present in water, the more chances that microorganisms can “hide” from the chlorine disinfectant. If you only have access to cloudy water, follow the dosage table and use a smaller volume of water for each tablet.

I've been using the Aquatabs 397mg Water Purification Tablets for various outdoor activities and emergency preparedness, and they have proven to be an invaluable part of my gear. Here’s what stands out to me: Easy to Use: Each tablet is individually packaged, making it easy to grab only what I need for a day of camping or add a few to an emergency kit. You simply drop the tablet into water, wait, and it’s ready to drink. Effective Purification: These tablets have consistently provided clean, safe water. After following the recommended wait time, the water tastes normal, with no unpleasant aftertaste, which is often a concern with purification tablets. Versatile for Multiple Situations: I’ve used these not only for camping and hiking trips but also to ensure safe water during power outages and other emergencies. They’re compact enough to store in a small emergency kit, an RV, or even a glove compartment. Great Value for the Quantity: With 100 tablets in a pack, I feel well-prepared for a range of situations without needing frequent restocking. Each tablet treats a good amount of water, so they stretch even further when I’m careful with usage. Overall, Aquatabs are a convenient, reliable, and cost-effective solution for anyone needing portable water purification.

Excellent product. Safer then liquid bleach and self life is far longer if kept dry until use. We use it in the watering tanks or buckets for our animals. It works. Safe for humans too.
