I am pretty sure the answer is not but just need to hear it for myself. Will this work on seawater?

It's pretty amazing, but it won't remove salt. Here's a link to a more in-depth review: http://www.portablewaterfilters.org/whats-new/lifestraw-family-1-0-review/

Salt molecules are to tiny. It requires more sophisticated filters and pressure to separate h2o from nacl. Katadayn make that kind of units.

Nope this will not work with sea water you will actually mess up the device if you use sea water

I don't know.. I think it would.. sometimes I have problems with water with high dissolved solids in the water.. distilled waterworks the best.. but some do say they do work with oils..

Don't know the answer to that since we are on well water. I doubt it though. It's a very simple filter. Not fine or well-fitted. Works good for sediment.

Yes, but for saltwater, you will need to order the zinc anodes kit. This set does not have them.

I imagine it would work in any pool. It's just checking for the chemicals present in the water. Shouldn't matter if it's salt water. You might email the manufacturer. I did a couple of years ago and they answered me right away.

I can get back to you about it I am not 100% certain but I am pretty sure that my friend uses it with salt water aquariums. He works at the world largest aquatic pet store so I can ask him for you..

This will not work on the Oceanic BioCubes. It is only for the Coralife versions of the BioCubes.

I would think so. Water is water. Pump sucks it up and filters out the particles. No matter if it's salt or fresh.

Yes. Before you use this in water, you should use a paper towel and test it.

I honestly don't know, would think probably not, as this tests for chlorine too. Maybe do a search for saltwater test kits? I'm unfamiliar with what you need exactly, so sorry.

No it isn't suited for use in or around salt water. It's a very durable unit and all that but the conductivity of saltwater requires a detector designed to handle that application specifically. I have used mine on the beaches around where I live. That must be above the tide line in soil and rocky areas well above the brackish water table and it works well for that. As soon as you find salt water within the detection limits of the unit you are bound to have problems.

I have no exprerience with salt water. I would read marketing materials or contact manufacturer..Good luck...

I haven't tried it, but I don't see why not. It works really well with water.

I do not see any reason why it would not work with saltwater due to no bearings to worry about and everything s plated or painted. All in all its a great unit to have. I liked it so well i now have 2 of them. One on each end of the boat.

I use mine strictly for freshwater, probably could be used for saltwater but I would not recommend it.

I have heard that this product works well under boats...I would think it should work. I have used it on dry surfaces.
