The Black Berkey® purification elements combine the age-old process of micro-porous filtration with state-of-the-art technology and the highest quality materials to bring you the finest water purification system available anywhere.
Why are the Berkey® systems the benchmark in gravity fed water purification? It’s simple- they remove viruses, harmful pathogenic bacteria, cysts, parasites, pesticides, herbicides, pharmaceuticals,heavy metals, unhealthy contaminants and impurities to below detectable levels, while leaving in the essential minerals your body needs. The result is the most healthful, delicious water available.
Berkey® systems can easily purify ordinary tap water, yet are powerful enough to efficiently purify raw, untreated water from sources such as remote lakes and streams. In the event of natural disasters and emergencies when treated water may not be available, your Berkey® is essential.
Berkey® systems are the most economical water purification system you can own. The long life of the Berkey® Purification elements allows you to enjoy purified water for about two cents per gallon. Compare that to the cost of bottled water!
Berkey® systems are easy to assemble and operate without tools, electricity, water pressure or plumbing. When traveling, or if space is limited, the top and bottom chambers of most of our systems nest within each other for easy transport.
Our independent lab results speak for themselves. Click here to view how the test results for our Black Berkey® elements exceed expectations for gravity purification.
Berkey® Purification Elements are composed of a proprietary formulation of more than six different media types, all constructed into a very compact matrix containing millions of microscopic pores.
Secondly, our media formulation uses unique adsorption and absorption properties. Adsorption works to create an ionic barrier similar to surface tension.
inally, Berkey® systems are so effective at removing contaminants from water because of the extremely long “contact period”. Other filtration systems rely on water pressure that forces water molecules through the elements at 60-90 PSI.
We at Berkey want you to be educated about water purification. This will allow you to make an informed decision on something as important as the quality of your drinking water. Several methodologies are used to produce the Black Berkey® purification elements.
This system comes standard with two elements. The more elements your Berkey system is equipped with, the quicker you’ll be drinking crisp, clear water.
Berkey Water Filters are MADE in USA and provide the ultimate in waterborne contamination removal. They are used worldwide to set the international standard for water filters used in clean or hostile filtration environments. Owning a Berkey Water Filter gives you the ability to utilize almost any outside natural water source and transform it into the best tasting, purest drinking water possible.The cleanable Black Berkey replacement filters provide an economical, reliable and powerful long-term solution to poor water quality issues that cannot be equaled.
