Big Berkey – Our Most Popular Water Filter (comes with 2 Filters)

The Big Berkey is their most popular and versatile model.
It is ideal for home use and large families from 4 to 16 people or during emergencies.

All of their water filter systems are designed to provide purified drinking water for a certain number of individuals.
The Big Berkey water filter, in particular, was engineered to fit the needs of the average size family.

The Big Berkey is suited to produce enough water for between four and sixteen people. Big enough to provide ample water and still compact enough to fit in areas that larger units would not. Ideally suited for home use and families or small groups. This adaptable filter comes complete including instructions and everything you need to start purifying your drinking water within minutes of assembly.
