Berkey Water Filters at Wild Oak Trail

Why Choose Berkey Water Filters?

What Can Your Black Berkey Water Filter Elements Do?

Berkey Water Systems achieves superior results due to its patented Black Filter Elements. These black berkey water filters are more powerful than any other gravity filter element currently available.

How does it work? The micropores within the Black Berkey® Elements are so small that viruses and pathogenic bacteria simply cannot pass through them.

Many water filters on the market claim to be water purifiers, but do not guarantee to meet filtering performance requirements to provide truly clean water. To be classified as a water purifier, a water treatment device must remove at least 99.9999% of pathogenic bacteria and reduce viruses by 99.99%.

The Black Berkey® Purification Elements can be classified as water purifiers because they remove 99.9999% of pathogenic bacteria and 99.999% of viruses and harmful chemicals, greatly exceeding the standard market filter systems. The Black Berkey®Purification element formulation has been tested by State and EPA-accredited laboratories to exceed NSF/ANSI Standard 53.

How do I clean my Berkey system?

Your Berkey system will give you a lifetime of purified high-quality drinking water providing ideal personal protection for you and your family. Contaminants and water deposits will effect your Berkey over time, so it's important to clean your unit on a regular basis to ensure it maintains its water quality for a very long time, ensuring your peace of mind that you're getting the most out of your Berkey. We recommend cleaning the lower chamber and upper chamber monthly, and the Black Berkey Elements every six months or as flow rates decrease.
