First Time Operation & After Each Re-Priming:
Note: The Black Berkey® Elements may take up to 15 minutes to begin
dripping. Maximum flow rate will be achieved after the initial 12-24
hours of use, as micro air pockets within the purification elements are
replaced with water.


• Your system will continue to filter water even when the lower
chamber is full. This can cause the system to overflow. It is
recommended to empty the lower chamber completely prior to
refilling the upper chamber.
• Purified water can remain in the lower chamber for three days.
If any water still remains at the end of three days, dispense
into a clean secondary container and refrigerate up to four
more days.
• If you plan to leave your system unused for more than three
days, empty both the upper and lower chambers, remove all
filtration elements, and allow the components to dry. The
Black Berkey® Elements should be allowed to air dry. See
“Storing the Black Berkey® Purification Elements” on page 8
and “Storing the PF-2 Elements” on page 13.

• While this system can effectively purify raw untreated pond,
lake, and river water, always use the cleanest, clearest water
whenever possible.
• This system is not intended for use with saltwater or softened
water.
• If the source water contains large amounts of particulate
matter, pre-filter it using material such as a coffee filter or
cheesecloth. In emergency situations, a T-shirt or similar
material will serve the same purpose.
• If you suspect a water source contains viral and bacteriological
contamination, add 16-drops of plain bleach or iodine to
each 1-gallon of water and wait 30 minutes in order to
pre-treat the water before purifying in this system. The disinfectant
will be removed from the water during the purification
process, leaving no odor or taste.

2. Press the rubber priming button (tan or black colored) onto the
stem of the element.
3. Place the threaded stem of the element between your index and
middle fingers and press the priming button against the faucet
while placing your thumb on top of the faucet to create a tight
seal.
4. While holding the priming button against the faucet, turn on the
cold water slowly, allowing water to fill the inside of the
element.
5. Allow the exterior wall of the element to sweat beads of water
for about 10 seconds.
6. Rinse the manufacturing dust from the exterior of the element.
The element has now been successfully primed.
7. Repeat steps 1 – 6 for each additional element.

• Do not discard the priming button as you may need it in the
future to re-prime the elements after cleaning or when the
elements have been allowed to dry for a prolonged period of
time.

o It is recommended to use the Black Berkey® Primer,
a hand-powered priming pump that does not require
faucets or hose connections. See “Parts and
Accessories” on page 21 of this booklet.
o If you do not have the Black Berkey® Primer, soak
the elements. Fill a clean container, such as the lower
chamber of your Berkey® system, with water and
place the elements in the water upside down with the
stems facing upward and out of the water. Place an
object (such as a ceramic coffee cup) on each stem to
force the element body under the water. Allow the
elements to soak for several hours to fully saturate
them.

1. To determine if the Black Berkey® Elements have been successfully
primed, remove them from the system and submerge them in a tall
container of clean water, such as the lower chamber of your Berkey®
system. If they sink to the bottom, they are fully saturated. If they
float, the micro pores still contain trapped air and the elements will
need to be re-primed.
2. Re-prime the elements. Follow the instructions provided within the
element box or use the “Black Berkey® Purification Elements
Priming Tips” on page 6 of this booklet.
3. If re-priming the elements does not improve the flow rate, soak the
elements using the instructions provided on page 7 in the “Note”
section of “Black Berkey® Purification Elements Priming Tips”.
4. If the elements continue to have a slow flow rate contact Customer
Service.

• Small particulate matter can become trapped on the outside of
the elements causing the flow rate to decrease. Follow the
instructions in the “Routine Cleaning and Maintenance”
section on page 12 to clean the elements.
• If the elements have been allowed to sit dry for several days,
air may be trapped in the micro pores and the elements will
need to be re-primed. Follow the “Priming Tips” for the
elements on page 6.

•: The elements can be stored indefinitely in their original
packaging. Do not store with fragrant items.
•: Clean the elements following the cleaning instructions on
page 13 and then allow them to dry completely. The drying process
can vary from one day to one week depending on the humidity level
in the air. When dry, store the elements in their original packaging.
Be sure to re-prime the filters before using them again.

Note: Due to its specific composition, only artificial food coloring that
is red in color can be used. Natural dyes that are red in color, such as
vegetable juices, cannot be used in place of artificial red food coloring.
To determine whether the Black Berkey® Elements are working
properly, perform the following test using red food coloring.
Testing the Black Berkey® Purification Elements

•Are the wing nuts on securely? Please do not tighten the wing nuts
using any tools; they should be hand tightened to a snug fit, but not
more. If the wing nuts are put on too tight, this could cause
stripping on the threads of the filter stem, preventing a correct seal.
•Are you using the correct type of dye? Artificial liquid red food
coloring is the only type recommended for this test. Other dyes
contain minerals and natural colors which may pass through the
Black Berkey® Elements.
Red Dye Troubleshooting Tips
Please review ALL below troubleshooting tips to ensure a correct
test before contacting Customer Service.
1. Confirm that the placement of the element washer and wing nut are
correct. The washer should be inside the upper chamber and the wing
nut should be on the underside of the upper chamber.
2. If your Berkey® system contains the optional PF-2 Fluoride and
Arsenic Reduction Elements in addition to the Black Berkey®
Elements, REMOVE FLUORIDE FILTERS BEFORE TESTING.
3. Place an equal sized glass under each Black element to catch the
filtered water.
4. In a separate container, add one teaspoon of red food coloring for every
gallon of water your upper chamber holds. DO NOT DROP FOOD
COLORING ONTO FILTERS.
5. Pour the red tinted water into the upper chamber. Your Black filters
should be fully submerged in water.
6. Allow the water to filter into the glasses.
7. If the filtered water has a pink or red tint, see below additional
troubleshooting tips before contacting Customer Service.

• Do not allow wet purification elements to freeze.
• Do not place purification elements in dishwasher.
• Do not place purification elements in microwave oven.
• Do not boil purification elements.
• Do not clean purification elements with detergents or soaps.
• Do not store purification elements until completely dry.
• Do not allow purification elements to sit in the direct sun for extended
periods of time.
• Do not place Berkey® system near a heat source or in direct sunlight.
• Do not use elements to filter sea water or softened water.
•Do not rest upper chamber on Fluoride filters or Black filter stems.
•Remove filters and pack safely while traveling

•Are the Washers and Wing nuts installed correctly? The Washer
should be on the stem of the black filter inside the upper chamber,
and the Wing nut should be secured on the black filter stem in the
lower chamber. If not you will not have a proper seal, and will cause
your system to fail the test. Please see diagram 2 on page 2 to ensure
the washers and wing nuts are correctly installed.
•
•
Are the blocking plugs properly sealing the unused holes without
elements? If you have a multi-part screw style plug, verify that the
plugs are installed tight with a silicone washer on each side. If you
have the cork style hole plugs, make sure they are installed with the
narrow end inserted first through the inside of the upper chamber. If
the plugs are leaking, this will cause the system to fail the test.
Are you re-testing an element you think has failed? If so, rinse off
and re-prime the element first. Additionally, make sure you empty
any excess water out of the bottom of the system or cups. If you are
using the bottom chamber to catch water, run clean water through
the spigot to clean it out as well.
Now you are ready to repeat the test.
If you've followed all the troubleshooting steps, and your filter(s) still fails
the red food coloring test, do not throw away the filter(s), as they have a 2-
year prorated warranty. Contact Customer Service for further assistance.

1. With the blue caps in place, wash the exterior of each PF-2
element with water and dish washing soap.
2. With clean hands, remove one blue cap from the end of a PF-2
element. It does not matter which blue cap is removed.
3. While holding the PF-2 element under your sink faucet,
slowly turn on the cold water and fill the PF-2 element with water
(about ½ cup is needed). Then turn the water off.
4. Replace the blue cap on the PF-2 element and shake it gently to
help loosen any manufacturing dust that may be trapped within the
element. Gently tapping the PF-2 element on the counter a few
times will also help to loosen any excess manufacturing dust.
5. Remove both blue caps from the ends of the PF-2 element and
empty out any residual water.
6. Place the tan rubber priming button onto one end of the PF-2
element and align the hole of the element with the hole of the
priming button.
7. Press the priming button up against the sink faucet so the priming
button creates a seal between the faucet and the PF-2 element.
Place your thumb on top of the faucet to apply more pressure,
creating a better seal.
8. Turn on the cold water slowly, allowing water to fill the cavity of
the PF-2 element and discharge from the opposite end. Allow
water to flow for one to two minutes or  
9. To determine if more priming is necessary, run additional water
through the element using a clear glass, to collect the water
discharging from the opposite end. If the collected water still
appears cloudy, continue priming until the water is clear.

3. Return the upper chamber to the system by placing it onto the lower
chamber. The PF-2 elements should now hang down into the lower
chamber. The PF-2 elements will hang loosely but are secure.
4. Fill the upper chamber with water and let it drain into the
lower chamber. When the lower chamber is full, discard the
first batch of water as it may contain residual manufacturing dust.
The system is now ready for use.

Cloudy water may indicate that the PF-2 elements still contain some manu-
facturing dust and will require additional flushing with water.
1. Fill a clean container with clean water and soak the PF-2
elements in the water for at least 30 minutes. Tilt the elements,
while under water, so that any air bubbles can escape from both
ends.
2. Remove the PF-2 elements from the water. Cover the holes
with either your fingers or the blue caps that came with the
elements, and shake the elements vigorously. Then tap them
lightly on the counter to loosen any residual manufacturing dust.
3. Re-prime the PF-2 elements using steps 6 through 9 of “PF-2
Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Elements Priming Tips” on
page 11.
4. If the water filtering through the PF-2 elements continues to be
cloudy in appearance, contact Customer Service.

1. To prevent contamination, wash hands before proceeding.
2. Remove the upper chamber and place it upside down on a solid
surface, to unscrew the optional PF-2 elements, and set safely aside.
3. Lift the upper chamber vertically, and use one hand to hold the black
filter and the other to unscrew all wing nuts that secure the Black
Berkey® Elements in the chamber.
4. Remove the Black Berkey® Elements from the inside of the upper
chamber.
5. Hold one element under the faucet with the exit hole pointed up.
6. Using a clean 3M Scotch-Brite™ pad, scrub the surface of the element
for several minutes. The goal is to remove the outermost layer of the
element, exposing a new layer of open micro pores.
7. Rinse the element with water but place a finger over the hole of
the threaded stem to prevent any potentially contaminated water from
entering the core of the element.
8. Re-prime the element using the “Priming Tips” on page 6.
9. Repeat steps 4 to 7 for each additional Black Berkey® Element.
10. Reassemble the system.

The chambers, particularly the lower chamber, should be cleaned at least
once per month.
1. Remove the Black Berkey® Elements, optional PF-2 elements,
spigot, and any other attached components.
2. Clean the chambers using water and a mild dish soap. If the water used
for cleaning is suspected to contain viruses or bacteria, add 16 drops of
bleach per gallon of water. The stainless steel Berkey® chambers can

• There is no water-tight seal between the upper and lower
chambers of the system because this type of seal would
prevent gravity filtration. Therefore water will leak from
where the two chambers fit together if both the upper and
lower chambers are full or nearly full of water. To prevent
overflow, it is recommended to empty the lower chamber
completely prior to refilling the upper chamber.

• The Berkey® systems are gravity filters and as the water level in
the upper chamber decreases the filtering process will naturally
slow down because there is less water pressure available to force

first. If you have a Berkey® Light system, do not place any of its
components in the dishwasher.
Note: If your Berkey® system is filtering hard water, which is water
with a high dissolved mineral content, scale from naturally-occurring
minerals such as calcium may develop in the spigot and chambers
after prolonged use. These deposits can be removed by soaking the
affected components in a 50-50% vinegar and water mixture for about
15 minutes. Then wash with water and mild dish soap. Do not soak the
Black Berkey® Elements or optional PF-2 elements in the vinegar
mixture.

in the Berkey® chambers as well as cookware that have contained
the filtered water. These deposits can be removed by thoroughly
cleaning the chambers and cookware. For cleaning instructions, see
“Cleaning the Chambers of the Berkey® System” found on page 13.

• Test the Black Berkey® Elements. To ensure the elements are
properly filtering the water, perform the red food coloring test using
the instructions found on page 9.
• Re-prime the PF-2 elements. If your Berkey® system contains the
optional PF-2 elements, the taste may be due to residual
manufacturing dust that was not removed during the priming
process. See the “Priming Tips” for the PF-2 elements that are
provided on page 11 as well as the PF-2 element “Troubleshooting”
on page 12.
• Clean your Berkey® system. Follow the “Routine Cleaning and
