| Storage Capacity | 4.5 Gallons (17 Liters) |
| Height (In Use) | 26 inches |
| Diameter | 10 inches |
| Weight (Empty) | 10 lbs |
| Max Flow Rate | Up to 5.5 Gallons/hour (2 elements) or 16.5 Gallons/hour (6 elements) |
| Ideal For | 4 - 8 People |
Note: If installing PF-2 fluoride filters, they must be primed separately and attached directly to the Black Berkey stems inside the lower chamber.
It is normal for about one inch of water to stay in the top tank, as there isn't enough gravity pressure left to push it through.
Filtration SpeedFlow is fastest when the top tank is full. If speed is extremely slow, re-priming elements can clear air and open pores.
Taste & TextureIf flavors are off after initial flushes, try a food coloring test. PF-2 users should ensure all manufacturing dust is flushed to prevent cloudiness.
Spigot LeaksCheck that washers are on both sides of the tank wall. Dry or hard washers can be revived by soaking in olive oil for an hour.
The Imperial Berkey System is a stainless steel countertop water filter that uses gravity, not plumbing or electricity, to pass tap water through Black Berkey® Elements. It is sized for larger households of 4 to 8 people, and everything you need to set it up is in the box.
The Imperial Berkey System has a holding capacity of 4.5 gallons (17 liters), making it a good fit for 4 to 8 people. Fill it in the evening and the lower chamber holds enough filtered water for cooking and drinking the next day.
The Imperial Berkey System can filter approximately 5.5 gallons per hour with two elements, and up to 16.5 gallons per hour when fully configured with six Black Berkey® Elements. Filtration time can vary depending on the quality of the source water.
Black Berkey® Elements are specially formulated to address 200+ typical contaminants found in treated tap water, including chlorine, lead and other heavy metals, PFAS, pesticides, pharmaceutical residues, and VOCs. Add the optional PF-2 elements to also reduce fluoride and arsenic. Independent lab reports are linked above. Berkey® systems are intended for use with treated municipal tap water.
To clean the Imperial Berkey System, disassemble the unit and scrub the Black Berkey elements with a Scotch-Brite pad under running water. Wash the chambers with mild dish soap and rinse thoroughly. Cleaning is recommended every six months or as needed, depending on water quality and usage.
The Black Berkey® Elements can filter up to 3,000 gallons (11,356 liters) of water per element, meaning the two elements in the Imperial Berkey can filter up to 6,000 gallons (22,712 liters) before needing replacement. With average use, this could mean several years before replacement is necessary.
No. Berkey® products cannot ship to California or Iowa. If you are in either state, call or chat with us and we will point you to a comparable gravity filter we can ship.

All Berkey Water Filter systems and accessories are processed and shipped directly from our trusted U.S. warehouse partners within 3 to 7 business days. Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a confirmation email containing your tracking number so you can monitor your delivery status in real time.

If this happens, tracking information will be provided for each package.
Wild Oak Trail proudly offers FREE standard shipping within the continental United States on qualifying Berkey orders. Please note that shipping timelines may vary slightly during peak seasons, holidays, or due to carrier delays beyond our control.
