Fitting and priming Berkey® PF-2™ water filters


The Berkey® PF-2™ water filters reduce fluoride and arsenic and work in conjunction with the Black Berkey® purification elements to effectively purify your water. The Berkey PF-2™ elements mainly filter fluoride ions, arsenic, and other heavy metal ions. They are made of polypropylene and are BPA-free.

These elements are sold in sets of two and have a lifespan of approximately 3,800 liters. The fluoride reduction elements attach to the Black Berkey® purification elements and are positioned in the lower chamber of the Berkey® systems. The number of installed Berkey PF-2™ elements must match the number of installed Black Berkey® water filters for them to be effective.

Before use, they must be primed for about thirty seconds on each side, following the procedure described in the following document: assembly and priming of the Berkey PF-2™ elements (document in English). A complete documentation in French is provided for any purchase of PF-2™ filters from Berkey France Millenium.
