Abstract: A self-back flushing filtration assembly includes an inner container, an outer container, and a filter cartridge. The inner container is configured to receive treated water by way of a filter cartridge. The outer container is configured to hold untreated water and sleeve the filter cartridge and the inner container. The inner container and the filter cartridge are moveably positioned within the outer container to compress and draw the untreated water through filter media within the filter cartridge by way of a filter cap. The filter cap is movably positioned within a cavity of the outer container to draw treated water from the inner container through the filter media of the filter cartridge.

Abstract: A filtration container assembly generally includes an outer container having a first end and a second end and defining an inner cavity, and a plunging assembly configured to be received within the outer container inner cavity, wherein the plunging assembly includes an inner sleeve having a first end and a second end and an outer wall defining an inner bore, wherein the outer wall is continuous from the first end to the second end, and a filtration assembly coupled to the inner sleeve at the second end.
