Endorsed Replacement & Universal Fit

These elements are the only replacement officially endorsed by New Millennium Concepts, Ltd. for use in Berkey systems in lieu of Black Berkey Elements (BB9-2). They’re designed for universal compatibility, fitting Berkey models such as Go Berkey Kit, Travel Berkey, Berkey Light, Big Berkey, Royal Berkey, Imperial Berkey, and Crown Berkey, as well as many other gravity-fed systems.

• Universal design supports multiple Berkey models and other gravity-fed brands.
• Includes PrimeEasy universal primer for quick priming and hands-on setup.

Performance, Taste, and Practical Use

The NMCE elements have been tested to address a broad array of typical drinking water contaminants. You may notice filtration that happens more quickly than with some older elements, while minerals continue to pass through, contributing to a balanced taste profile. It’s worth noting that relying on a TDS meter alone may not fully reflect water quality or mineral content, so taste and mouthfeel can offer useful cues alongside measurements.

• Faster filtration compared to prior element designs, enabling quicker access to refreshed water.
• Minerals pass through the filter, preserving core mineral content in the water.

Setup, Replacement Schedule, and Long-Term Value

Replacement guidance depends on water quality, but a typical interval is about 2,750 gallons per element, or 5,500 gallons per set of two. The included PrimeEasy Universal Primer helps get the filters primed in minutes, speeding up installation and minimizing downtime.

• PrimeEasy primer included for fast, straightforward priming.
• Long-lasting, cost-efficient replacement option when used with quality influent water.

Important Notes

These elements are officially endorsed for Berkey use in lieu of BB9-2 by New Millennium Concepts. Results will depend on your specific water source. Remember that TDS readings are not a definitive gauge of water quality or mineral content; consider taste, odor, and clarity as part of your evaluation.
