Phoenix filters for your everyday water
The stainless steel tanks of the Big Berkey® are combined with filtering elements whose formulation includes activated carbon from coconut shells, to reduce chlorine and improve the taste and odor of water.
Officially approved by New Millennium Concepts, Ltd. for Berkey®, systems the Phoenix filters constitute a reference distinct from the Black Berkey®, with their own characteristics and maintenance recommendations.
UNDERSTANDING THE FLOW
A fast and scalable flow
| Configuration | Maximum advertised flow |
|---|---|
| 2 Phoenix filters supplied | Up to 13.3 L/h |
| 4 Phoenix filters | Up to 26.5 L/h |
Four filter configuration requires the addition of two additional elements, sold separately.
Phoenix filters are designed to offer a high flow rate. Rapid flow does not, in itself, constitute a defect.
It corresponds to the expected operation when the assembly is tight and that the flow rate remains consistent with the characteristics of the Big Berkey®.
Good to know: the flow rate depends on the number of filters
and the water level. It is higher when the upper tank is full,
then gradually decreases.
