The Big Berkey is the most popular Berkey water purifying system, and with good reason. It’s the perfect size for up to four people, a cinch to set up, and its highly polished food-grade stainless steel exterior looks great in any setting.

Berkey water purifiers are, quite simply, the best you can buy. These powerhouses remove harmful chemicals (herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes) and reduce nitrates and heavy metals (lead and mercury) in your water, while leaving in the beneficial minerals you need.  Most systems feature interchangeable filters to let you configure the filtering capabilities to target specific contaminants like PF2 arsenic and flouride. Berkey water purifiers let you hydrate the way nature intended: with the fresh, pure, mineral-rich water, free of chemicals and additives.
