These filters are why I love my Berkey filtration system so much! I originally bought a Berkey because we lived where our well water was too high in fluoride and heavy metals (we used the white Berkey fluoride filters in conjunction with these black filters). Now we live off grid in the mountains and collect drinking water from a nearby stream. We always filter it through our Berkey first, to remove any unhealthy organisms or naturally-occurring heavy metal content, and it’s the best water I’ve ever had. I wouldn’t live anywhere without my Berkey now!

Berkey water purification systems are nothing short of outstanding. But, the hard packed charcoal filters must be either recharged (Berkey sells a kit for this), or replaced, periodically. I recommend the kit as it allows you to recharge the filters at a fraction of the cost of these replacement filters. But, if you are lazy, or your filters have been compromised, these genuine replacement filters are what you want. They are the same filters that come with the new Berkey system, and are simple to install.
