What is a Royal Berkey Water System and why you need it?

Around the world, millions of consumers are using Berkey Water Systems to ensure that their drinking water is purified of waterborne contaminants. What makes them so popular is that besides providing filtered clear drinking water they are easy to carry around for outdoor activities like sporting events, camping trips and for unexpected emergencies like floods or snowstorms.

The Royal Berkey Water System is the mid-range filter option and is ideal for serving a household or office of up to six members.  The clever design of the Berkey Water System allows you to enjoy a glass of filtered water without needing electricity or water pressure.

Its modern design and highly polished 304 stainless steel canister give it its contemporary look and hardy exterior.   In the event of you wanting to replace any parts over the years, including the spigot, washers or wingnuts over the years, you will always be able to buy them from your favorite Berkey Water System supplier.  The same applies to the two Black Berkey Purification Elements, which will last for at least 5 years.

How does the Royal Berkey Water System work?

All you need to do in order to enjoy a glass of purified water is to fill the Royal Berkey Water System with 3.25 gallons of water. The Black Berkey Filters remove all harmful contaminants leaving you with a glass of fresh clear water that still contains all the nutrients and minerals that your body needs. These filters can purify up to 6,000 gallons of water and can last between five and ten years.

Black Berkey Filters remove contaminants through:

The advanced technology of the Black Berkey Filters was developed and perfected over many years of dedicated work, research and testing from a team of water purification specialists, researchers and engineers.

  1. Microfiltration

Millions of microscopic pores are specially formulated to ensure what the people at Berkey call a “tortuous path” for all the types of pathogenic bacteria to travel through. These paths are so small that pollutants are trapped and eliminated from the drinking water. This is the process of microfiltration and can remove everything from small particles, chemicals, and even foul smells.

  1. Absorption

The special formulation of the filter uses unique adsorption and absorption properties. Adsorption creates an ionic barrier that allows the tiniest of pores to still absorb contaminants that are even smaller than the pores. That is the reason why the Berkey water filter can remove submicron viruses without the help of other harmful chemicals like iodine and chlorine.

  1. Flow rate

Since Berkey systems do not rely on water pressure to force the water molecules through elements at 60-90PSI, they are more effective. In high-pressure situations, the water molecules only come into contact with the filtration system for a fraction of a second. The Black Berkley allows gravity to gently draw the water down, letting it stay in contact with the filter much longer. The filter can more effectively capture all the contaminants present in the water but will leave all the other nutrients and minerals intact.
