Description of 🔄 Berkey Replacement Purification Element Package

FILTERS TYPICAL CONTAMINANTS THAT COULD BE PRESENT IN TAP WATER AND RAW, FRESHWATER SOURCES SUCH AS LAKES, RIVERS AND PONDS- Choose only Black Berkey Elements. There are no substitutes for Berkey performance and quality. ECONOMICAL, LONG-LASTING- A pair of Black Berkey Elements lasts for up to 6,000 gallons before replacement is recommended, depending on the quality of influent water. Each additional pair of Black Berkey Elements (sold separately) adds an additional 6,000 gallons of contaminant reduction to your system before replacement is recommended. Black Berkey Elements average just 2 cents per gallon of water. Elements not for use with saltwater sources or softened water. INDEPENDENT TESTING- Berkey Water Systems has used several independent third-party labs to test a broad range of typical contaminants found in freshwater sources including tap water, and has conducted Extreme Testing for lead and PFCs in order to show the effectiveness of Black Berkey Elements.

Works for us with hard water.

We have a Big Berkey filtration system with two ceramic filters and two filters. It's time to change the filters and this time I've decided to use all four activated carbon filters. We have very hard water here and we have found that we get drinking water to use in our coffee maker first with the Brita filter and then through the Berkey filter. We seniors don't care about big water bottles and we don't have room for a full filter system.

Pros
  • Countertop Replacement Water Filter
Cons
  • Slightly Torn

Substitutions will not be accepted

Yes, they are expensive. What is permanently, reliably and effectively filtered water worth to you? We use our water to filter well water, which sometimes has very high iron or sulfur levels. These filters work like no other to remove everything you need, resulting in pure water that's more refreshing than a Coke. And remember that filtered water makes your ice (or should be!), We tried cheaper once and "paid the price". Bite the bullet, pay the price and enjoy the benefits. Your coffee will…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here

With the company being sued

I poisoned myself by relying on these filters. I noticed that the NYT determined that the filters only work at 1000 liters. I had heavy iron deposits in my tap water, I didn't realize how bad it was. I've been filtering water with these filters for the last two years. I've been ill for the past few months. I went to the doctors and they found that I had high levels of iron, which is usually a sign of liver failure. I got home, checked on the Berkey and noticed rust on the top. Although the…

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

Bought two sets of Revain black filters through distributors in Colorado (received July 12th, installed about a week later). They were primed as indicated. The water flow was very good for about 2 weeks, then slowed down significantly. I washed them under cold water, wiped them down with a Scotchbrite cloth (NOT soap), primed them according to the instructions and reinstalled. They worked well for less than a week, then I had to repeat the cleaning process. A week later and same problem again…

Pros
  • Test results stable
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
