Description

The Thirsty Nomad brings affordable water purification to the caravan sector. Based on scientific evidence and the latest in water purification technologies to Australian caravanners, requiring no power and no chemicals.
The Thirsty Nomad ‘5 in 1’ water purifier has been designed and developed by Water Scientists, rigorously tested and scientifically proven. For the first time in the Australian RV sector, 0.01 micron Ultrafiltration and ANSI/NSF P231 certified Quantum Disinfection media combine to kill harmful bacteria and viruses in 0.1/second. Proven technology by 14 global laboratories and 7 global patents.
Historically, caravanners had little choice other than simple granular activated carbon filters, which cannot kill bacteria and viruses upon contact. Unfortunately, traditional granular activated carbon filters do not meet Australian Drinking Water Standards for E.coli.
Because when entrusting a filter with your safe water needs, and your health on the road, you need to know your filter is tested and proven. The Thirsty Nomad ‘5 in 1’ purifier is the most affordable, compact, advanced purifier on the market today.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

  • The only inline purifier on the Australian market that has been tested to AU/NZ Standards to kill 99.9% of bacteria and viruses upon contact.
  • 7,500 Litres – please note, Purifier life is determined by a. Volume and b. Water Quality.
  • For use when you will be sourcing and using water that has already been pre-treated by a municipal council.
  • For use on a dedicated cold water line, installed under your sink to purify drinking water
  • Easy DIY installation – no plumber required
  • Can be mounted horizontal or vertical – just make sure water flow is as per the flow direction arrow on puriifer
  • Purifier works at it’s optimal when installed into a dedicated drinking water line, after your pump and after the hot water take off junction. Why? You ask! Becuase when the purifier is used as a dedicated drinking water purifier, you get longevity out of you Thirsty Nomad “5 in 1” and you know that all the water you cook with and drink is microbiologically safe.
  • Always install purifier AFTER the pump. Our purifier is a very fine micron rating at just 0.001 micron – as such, our purifier works at it’s optimal with the aid of the pressure of a pump pushing the water through the purifier.
  • Caravan pumps are usually 55psi and we would encourage our customers to always go for a 55psi pump. Many van manufacturers have been cutting costs by installing <40psi pumps as standard. Quite often, 40psi is just not enough pressure to push water through our purifier and through your van’s piping network and out to your faucets at a satisfactory water flow rate. However, please see our next note on our purifier installed after a standard 55psi Shuflo, FloJet or Seaflo pump.
  • When installed in a van, after a 55psi caravan pump, the water flow rate from the purifier will provide you with a 4 litre per minute flow rate at your shower, bathroom vanity and kitchen sink – a good flow rate for purifier performance and water saving (Note, 4L/minute flow is a 6 Star WELS Rating (Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards) which saves 105kL per year.
  • Many people assume that the Thirsty Nomad is a “fix all” purifier that will treat every ‘variable’ drop of water that you might encounter in your travels. Water filtration and purification is not that simple – we wish it was.
  • Water is highly variable and a highly complex science and when camping around Australia you will more than likely be offered Bore Water.
  • Bore Water is an excellent source of water. However bore water contains dissolved minerals of calcium, magnesium and iron which a). can make the water taste a bit “off” and b) will quickly clog the Thirsty Nomad purifier and any other brand of standard granular activated carbon filter – this is not a factor of brand, we are not critising brand – it is a factor of fact and science.
  • Bore Water contains dissolved minerals of calcium, magnesium and iron – these minerals will oxidise and then ‘mineralise’ inside of granular activated carbon filters redering them clogged and useless – and will do the same inside of the Thirsty Nomad’s carbon fibre block.
