I just wanted to say thank you to all the kind remarks above. I have been posting on this board for sometime now, and have enjoyed talking to some of the members on the phone. I just wanted to thank all those who not only have a berkey, but all those who have purchased one from us. We really appreciate it, and glad to support this site.

The newsletter feature should be available, if you can, take a moment on our website at www.directive21.com and signup for our news letter. We usually only send out one newsletter at the beginning of every month.

If this thread can possibly be made into a sticky thread, then i can answer questions that people may have, and help others get better prepared.

Also, just to clarify, as the Title Says "Berkefeld Filters". British Berkefeld filter systems contain the White ceramic filters and can be found here: http://directive21.com/british-berkefeld.html

The other Berkey Water Purification Systems we sell use Black Berkey Elements.

Welcome! Lots of threads pre Y2K about how great Berkys are. We bought one as one of the very 1st must-haves.

So can any one explain to me why I can not buy a Berky in Iowa? As I understand I have to go out of state to buy one.

Great question, from what i have seen on Iowa's website and from talking to the main berkey company, there are 2 factors.

The first factor is that tests need to be done by their labs, which are required. They are the only state that requires these kinds of tests.
The 2nd factor is the cost. The cost is about 7500 dollars per system, per combination of filters. The total price would be well over 100 grand, just to test the berkey filters and systems.

Looked at your site. Do you not carry the white sterasyl filters or am I just not finding them?

Saved, to glorify God.
Just bought a 3 gallon ROYAL Berkey last month off ebay.

He is offering a better deal on Royal Berkeys than I got on ebay. I paid $262.50 for two ceramic filters and one sports bottle, free shipping.

Canadian Customer inquires

I am going to order a Big Berkey but will have to order it in Canada as shipping from the US with the taxes, brokerage etc would be brutal if I do the importing.
Do you have anyone in Canada that brings the Berkeys in from your company for you that I could buy from....

Thanks

Currently we only ship to Canada, and we do charge for shipping, but it is reasonable and depends on the system ordered.

Feel free to order anytime, and i will email you about the shipping cost.
