havens.spfd@sbcglobal.net, thanks for the inquiry!

About the Purinize/Sawyer combo, it comes down to particle size. Purinize purifies the water to render it safe and the Sawyer removes all the large particulate that make drinking water in the backcountry annoying. The taste improvement is just a side effect from Purinize — it’s safe to use on its own for purifying.

Check out the testing info here: https://www.purinize.com/pages/product-testing. Purinize removes heavy metals from water; lead and arsenic tests are included on that site.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
