That would be true. … That would be true. We use farm well water with a strong iron and some sulpher smell and the purified water tastes better than commercial bottled water - no plastic taste.
The filters are $99 … The filters are $99 and are good for 6,000 gallons of water. That’s 1.7 cents a gallon. Filtered water at a grocery store is at least 25 cents and in plastic gallon containers, at least 69 cents. Our Berkey unit paid for itself in nine months compared to a Culligan system we were using before. We’re drinking for free now.
Thats the water … Thats the water where I live. Sometimes it smells like sulfur. Its not bad water, its very heavy tasting and im sure its good for you in a way. These purifiers are a bit expensive though :(.
I cleaned the … I cleaned the bottom catch tank when I first got it and haven’t cleaned it since. It gets nothing in it except purified water. The filters in the top tank will begin to slow down in the speed in which they filter. Then I clean the top tank and the filters. It is surprizing how much dirt and slime collect in there which without the filter, we would be drinking. The pair of filters are good for about 6000 gallons of water.
i just bought one … i just bought one of these and just waiting for it to come to my house. looks sweet.
for a moment there i thought it was 3000 gallons of water but thats just one filter element, with 2 filters, which is a set, it gives 6000 gallons of water. freakin awesome. im gonna have me some delicious rain water soon heheeh
The top part has … The top part has four holes so that you can run two sets of filters if you need a lot of water filtered. For most folks, one pair works well. Then you use the plastic plugs that come with the Berkey to plug the unused holes. It’s pretty easy to set up. The filters go in a hole on the top container with a foam washer underneath. The plastic wingnut holds the filter in place from the bottom.
Is that easy or … Is that easy or what? Sure, it’s easy once it’s embled. But how do you get the thing embled? My top part has four holes in it and only two long black things.
