Review on Sight Glass Spigot for Travel Berkey and Big Berkey Systems by Dana Schmidt

UPDATE: July 2017 - It's been working great for two years now. It helps to remember to tighten the screw over time - after many months it started to loosen because the gauge sometimes went a little sideways and we straightened it and over a long period of time it loosened. slightly rear bolt. Easy enough to tighten when replacing MTBE/Fluoride filters. The only other problem is that hard water marks form on the inside of the meter due to evaporation in very hot weather. We have not yet been able to remove these stains. They are not visible when the water level is above them, only when the water falls below them. At this point it appears to be just a cosmetic issue and we can't tell if the water is affected. container level. Instead, the water level in the glass will drop, giving the impression that you are losing water much faster than you actually are. Otherwise it works great. Tip: Do not use the rubber washers included in the kit. Instead, use the much thicker, stronger rubber washers that come with the standard Big Berkey faucet, which provide much better leak protection. We did just that, and we haven't had a single leak problem.
