Black Berkey® Purification Elements 

***This Item is not able to ship to California or Iowa***
*The Black Berkey® Purification Elements are made and assembled in the USA

Black Berkey® Purification Elements are more powerful than any current gravity filter element. The unique Black Berkey® Elements are made from a proprietary blend of media designed to work synergistically and target specific contaminants that far exceed the reduction capabilities of filters that are solely composed of activated carbon or ceramic materials and are backed by independent third-party testing. 

All Berkey® Water Systems are equipped with the Black Berkey® Elements that dramatically reduce trihalomethanes, inorganic minerals, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, VOCs, petroleum products, perfluorinated chemicals, rust, silt, sediment, radiologicals, and more.

Considered the gold standard in gravity-fed water filtration, the authentic Black Berkey® Elements are capable of greater contaminant reduction and a longer lifespan than virtually any of the other filter elements on the market. The Berkey Filters are truly an economical choice, averaging just pennies per gallon of filtered water.
