The versatile Big
Berkey® system is the ideal system for use at home with small or medium
sized families, travel, outdoor activities or during unexpected
emergencies.
This powerful system filters both treated water and untreated raw water
from such sources as remote lakes, streams, stagnant ponds and water
supplies in foreign countries, where regulations may be substandard at
best. Perfect for outdoor activities and a must in hostile environments
where electricity, water pressure or treated water may not be
available.
The Big Berkey® system removes pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites
and reduces harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, and VOCs
without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs.
Constructed of highly polished 304 stainless steel, the system comes
complete with four 9" ceramic elements. This system has a storage
capacity of about 2.25 gallons (8.5 liters) and when in use it stands 19.25" in
height with a diameter of 8.5". The upper chamber nests within the lower
chamber for transport and stands only 13" in height.
The system will filter about 25 to 30 Gallons (95-115 liters) per day*.
