British Berkefeld 7" Ultra Sterasyl Ceramic Gravity Filter Cartridge | 2 Pack| Reduces Contaminants | Suitable for All Gravity Cans | Improves Taste & Odour | NSF Certified Candle Element

I believe that it's essential these days to own a high-quality high-performance gravity filter for water purification - these filter candles seem to offer the best performance at a reasonable price - my drinking/cooking water tastes constantly so much better using this system by British Berkefeld. Highly recommended.

No complaints at this end. Bought it for use in Nigeria. Easy to assemble and condition before use. Gets the job done seemingly excellently. Ensure to read the instructions first. If the text is too tiny to comfortably read, ask AI for instructions. Note, if you choose to boil water for the filter, you MUST let the water cool to room temperature afterwards before pouring it into the filter, otherwise you will itreparably damage the filter candles.

I purchased a British Berkefeld water filter system late last year and recently needed to replace the water filters. I chose the British Berkefeld Doulton Ultra Sterasyl filters as direct replacements as those were the ones the system came with originally. The new filters arrived beautifully packaged and well-protected, showcasing the care taken to ensure the ceramic filters remained intact during transit. Each filter comes in its own box, cushioned with bubble wrap, and includes a silicone washer and screw cap for easy installation. The quality of these filters is exceptional. They are heavy, well-made, and effectively filter out 99.99% of common contaminants, including PFAS, bacteria, chlorine, cysts, microplastics, heavy metals, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. Although Doulton offers filters designed to remove fluoride, Essex and Suffolk Water do not add fluoride to the water in my area, so I haven't needed those yet. The truth is, you can't trust the quality of our water anymore. With reports of contaminants entering the water system and the poor state of our pipes and water treatment facilities, it's crucial to take matters into your own hands. As someone who drinks about 3-5 litres of water daily, I want to ensure my family's health is not compromised. The taste and quality of the filtered water are incomparable. Our tap water previously had a sweet taste and was sometimes murky. Now, we enjoy crystal clear water without any unpleasant aftertaste. At this price for 2 filters, it's excellent value for money, especially since they only need changing every six months. Plus, you can clean them with a brush or scotch pad to extend their lifespan. Installation is a breeze – just unscrew the old filters from the top container and replace them with the new ones. I have an 8.5L system, and I recommend passing at least 3 containers' worth of water through the filters before drinking, as the initial white powder from the ceramic can make the water slightly milky. I'm very happy with my purchase. Doulton is a reputable and trusted brand, and their British Berkefeld filter systems are exceptional. It's clear why they've been around for 200 years. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope that you found it helpful and that it assists you in your decision-making. I try to be as honest and fair as possible, as those have always been the reviews that helped me the most.

Great tasting water from these filters. I have a 6 litre tank and they last a year

Swift service, excellent quality. I will be ordering more

Easy to assemble and tastes good

Delivered very quickly. Great quality item and good spare ctg for my gravity filter.

Great

Come sempre una sicurezza ... Acqua migliora di sapore in modo imbarazzante ... Quasi neutra pur partendo da una base parecchio "saporita"... Diciamo cosi ...

Ce filtre résout parfaitement le problème d'eau potable pour notre famille de cinq personnes. Nous préparons également le lait maternisé avec l'eau filtrée, et cela convient parfaitement au bébé, aucun souci ! C'est déjà un produit que je rachète, je recommande vivement !

Bon produit

These are the handmade ones from the UK, ceramic with a carbon core. They fit perfectly in my Berkey gravity filter. Our rural water smells like bleach most of the time, but when it's filtered through these candles, it doesn't smell at all, and tastes so much better. Flow through time is good, especially since our water is low on particulates. The filters can be cleaned too, with a green abrasive kitchen pad ( no soap, use a new pad), if particulates slow down the flow. They're simple to install, just a rubber washer and a plastic wing nut. Each candle is rated for 13,000 gallons, so they last a LONG time! They are a great value for the money.

Habe mir noch mal zwei Stück von den 7" Ultra Sterasyl Kerzen als Reserve für mein Schwerkraft-System bestellt. Passen perfekt in den British Berkefeld rein, da wackelt nichts. Gegen biologische Verunreinigungen und Chemie greifen die Teile sowieso zuverlässig, aber der eigentliche Pluspunkt ist die integrierte Aktivkohle: Das gefilterte Wasser schmeckt danach absolut neutral und riecht nicht mehr abgestanden. Die Verarbeitungsqualität macht einen sehr wertigen Eindruck und aus Erfahrung haben die Kerzen eine wirklich ordentliche Standzeit, bevor man sie tauschen oder mal leicht schrubben muss. Meiner Meinung nach gehört so ein Schwerkraftfilter samt Ersatzkerzen eigentlich in jeden Haushalt für den Notfall. Nicht ganz billig, aber bei der Langlebigkeit eine saubere Investition - zumal sauberes Wasser die Grundlage für alles ist.
