Review on πŸ’§ Enhanced Berkey PF-2 Fluoride Filter Set by Pamela Jones

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The setup is confusing, murky water with aluminum oxide in it.

I read all the installation instructions and rinsed much longer than expected and then I noticed cloudy deposits in my coffee tank and my dog stopped drinking water too. Maybe I made more than eight turns and damaged the screen, I can't find any information to know if this is true or not. Today I emptied and cleaned the lower tank which was filled with this cloudy material which I found out to be aluminum oxide. I also noticed that the health issues I was having were returning, particularly joint pain, itching, wheezing and constipation, neurological issues. and see that it could be related to aluminum ingestion. I am very disappointed in this product and will not be using it, a huge waste of money and seems to have thrown my treatment regimen back a bit. There should be a big warning in the information sent with this product about overtightening and how to know if it has happened (cloudy water) and why is it really so easy to damage the screens in these filters? The thread you attach it to is much longer than the space inside the PF-2, so there's a chance the screens will break during installation, especially the first time. This needs to be revised to prevent this from happening! I don't want to consume aluminum in any form! I also filter all of the Berkley filtered water through another Brita filter and this filter does not remove cloudy deposits. I want a full refund.
