Why should I buy a Berkey pro care maintenance kit?

 

A Berkey pro care maintenance kit from USA Berkey filters is the best way to keep your system clean.  You probably don’t need to clean your Berkey filter system often, but you should do so at least once a year. It’s important to make sure that your Big Berkey filter is in its best condition for the best filtering performance.

The Berkey pro care maintenance kit includes everything you need to maintain and keep your Big Berkey in its best filtering condition.

The kit includes a cleaning brush and a polishing cloth, which are both food grade materials. The cleaning brush is perfect for scrubbing out the inside of the filter element and for removing any plaque that may build up on the flow spout and faucet assembly.

The polishing cloth is used to polish the exterior of your stainless steel system, especially after you have cleaned it or when it’s been sitting unused for a while. This gives it that nice fresh appearance again.

This pro care kit will only work with the stainless steel systems, including the Imperial berkey, Crown berkey, Royal berkey, Travel berkey, Big berkey and other larger units with their stainless steel systems.

Big Berkey water filter system is a self-sterilizing, water purification system. It does not require the use of electricity, water pressure or plumbing to operate. Big Berkey uses the most advanced micro-porous filtration technology in the world to produce quality purified drinking water for your family. The core of the Big Berkey filter system is a proprietary media known as Black Berkey Purification Elements. These elements are so powerful that they can be cleaned and reused up to 100 times before replacement is needed, making them far more economical than traditional filters.

The Black Berkey® Purification Elements are made and assembled in the USA. They remove pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites entirely and extract harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes. They also reduce nitrates, nitrites and unhealthy minerals such as lead and mercury. This results in clean water free from pathogens, toxins and heavy metals.  Your Berkey® water filter system is designed to work best with clean filters. We recommend cleaning your Big Berkey® system at least once every six months, or more frequently depending on use. An easy way to remember to clean your system is by placing a note in your calendar or planner.

To clean your system, you will need a bottle brush, the Berkey pro care maintenance kit, and a sink or bucket of warm water.Periodically, the Big Berkey filters will require cleaning. This is necessary because even though the filters do an excellent job of removing pathogenic bacteria and other contaminants, they cannot remove everything. Eventually, the filter pores become clogged with fine sediment, which slows water flow and reduces their filter life. How often this occurs depends on the hardness of your water and how much you use your system.

To clean the filters, we recommend using Berkey pro care maintenance kit as it effectively removes substances that can clog your filter without damaging the ceramic material.
