5 Reasons Why I Love my Berkey Water Filter
Today I want to talk about water I get a lot of questions about what kind of water filtration we use at our house I used a water distiller for eight years but they strip everything out of the water so you need to add minerals back in after eight years our distiller started to leak and so we had to make a decision buy a new distiller or buy something else in the last few years ago I kept reading and hearing a lot of good things about Berkey water filters after enough research I became convinced that it was an amazing device And we bought one last year (2012) and so we've been using it for almost a year now and i think it's about time for me to explain why I love it and why i think it's the best water filtration system This is the Berkey We have the Big Berkey (2 gallon model) There's five reasons why i think it's the best you can buy the first one is the Berkey removes 99.
99% of contaminants that includes bacteria parasites viruses and toxic pollution from manufacturing companies that ends up in our ground water 99. 99% It also has and extra fluoride & arsenic filter and that removes 95% of fluoride and arsenic to less than fifty parts per billion which is an unbelievably tiny amount So that's a good thing. Most water filters not remove fluoride. You have to get fluoride out of your water. It will destroy your pineal gland and your thyroid It is a toxic poison It does not help your teeth i have not used fluoride toothpaste in eight years and I've not drank fluoridated water in 8 years and my teeth are as healthy as they've ever been You don't need fluoride in toothpaste or water It is a mineral that comes naturally to your body through plant food The third reason is: It doesn't take any electricity or water pressure, which is amazing It's a free standing device You just fill up a pitcher with water you pour it in the top and the water filters down into the bottom unit You see the water dripping? that is the filtration system.

The two white filters are the fluoride arsenic filters The main two filters are in the top No electricity.No water pressure.which is great You can take it with you.It's portable.We took ours on vacation last year the waters tastes amazing.It is clean pure water also this does not strip out minerals It leaves the water in a neutral ph which is very important I's extremely economical.
This is reason number four.this is the Big Berkey. It's 2 gallons.They make smaller and bigger ones.This model is about $250. that sounds like a l lot of money for a water filter when you can buy a cheap filter like a Brita for $20-30 But get this.This particular model will filter 6000 gallons of water before you have to replace the filters. |
That's less than 2 cents per gallon And it will last you eleven years eleven years before you have to replace the filter and that's if you go through five gallons of water per week which is pretty average I'm sorry, if you go through 10 gallons of water per week It will last you eleven years That's 2 cents per gallon.
Incredibly economical.
$250 bucks is a lot of money up front but over the next eleven years it will save you a ton plus you get super clean pure water This thing will even filter pond water really anything you pour in the top it will filter through and clean and come out the bottom there's a little spigot on the front, you just put it on the edge of your counter top We fill ours up every night before bed It only take a few hours to filter though, but in the morning its ready. and if for someone reason we forget we just fill it up in the morning and its ready in an hour or so The reason we have this model is there is 4 people in my family It's the perfect size. If you have a bigger family you might want a bigger one. What else? That's pretty much it. I can't think of any other reason to buy it That's five really good reasons. It removes 99. 99% of bacteria It removes 95% of fluoride and arsenic. It's portable. It doesn't require electricity And it's extremely economical.
