"Black Berkey" Replacement Purification Elements - (Set of 2)
- Black Berkey® Purification Elements are the leader in gravity-fed water purification, backed by independent testing and experience.
- The Black Berkey® Purification Element formulation has been tested by State and EPA accredited laboratories to exceed NSF/ANSI Standard 53
- Includes: Two 9" Black Berkey® Purification Elements with 2 washers, 2 wing nuts, and 1 priming button
- Installs in the upper chamber of any Berkey system. Elements can also be used to upgrade most other gravity-fed water filter systems
- Sold as a set of 2 elements
- Durability: Each Black Berkey® Element is designed to purify approximately 3,000 gallons of water before needing replacement; 2 elements in a Berkey system will purify approximately 6,000 gallons of water before replacement is recommended
- Re-cleanable and self-sterilizing during the life of the element
- Elements come with a 2-year, pro-rated warranty
- The Black Berkey® Purification Elements are made and assembled in the USA
These two Black Berkey Purification Elements are more powerful than any other gravity filter element currently available and fit most gravity filters, dramatically improving their ability to remove unwanted contaminants (SET OF TWO).
The durable and efficient Black Berkey filtering elements last for up to 3,000 gallons each - 6,000 gallons total for this set of 2 and can be cleaned as needed with a toothbrush.
Black Berkey purification elements are so powerful, they can remove food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other filtration element can duplicate this performance.
We tested the Black Berkey purification elements with more than 10,000 times the concentration of pathogens per liter than is required by standard test protocol. This concentration of pathogens is so great that the post-filtered water should be expected to contain 100,000 or more pathogens per liter (99.99% reduction - the requirement for pathogenic removal). Incredibly the purification elements removed 100%. Absolutely no pathogens were cultured from the effluent or were able to be detected, even under an electron microscope, setting a new standard in water purification.
The powerful Black Berkey purification elements also remove or reduce viruses, pathogenic cysts, parasites, harmful or unwanted chemicals such as herbicides and pesticides, VOCs, detergents, organic solvents, trihalomethanes, cloudiness, silt, sediment, nitrates, nitrites, heavy metals, foul tastes, and odors, yet they leave in the healthful and beneficial minerals that your body needs.

Concerned about Fluroide
or Arsenic in your
water?
A special filtering element is available for reducing Fluoride and Arsenic in your water with our PF-2
post reduction elements. |
No need for expensive disposable filters. Black Berkey
purification elements are re-cleanable. When the flow rate decreases simply
brush the Black Berkey purification elements with a
ScotchBrite pad under running water, reinstall and your system is
again ready to purify water. Each durable and efficient purification element
will last for up to 3,000 gallons (6,000
gallons per set of two) and
provide years of efficient water purification. What's
more, the unique Black Berkey purification elements are
self-sterilizing.
The Black Berkey purification element formulation has been
tested by State & EPA accredited laboratories to exceed EPA & ANSI/NSF
(Std. 53) protocol.
