Introducing The Black Berkey Primer! The Device is 100% made in America.
http://www.directive21.com/products/black-berkey-primer/
I have waited over a year to tell all of you about this amazing new device that is NOW available! Many of you have asked us this question, how do I prime my Black Berkey Elements if I do not have water pressure from a faucet? That question has now been answered.
Here are some commonly asked questions:
1. What is the Black Berkey Primer⢠& what does it do?
The Black Berkey Primer⢠is a hand-powered priming pump that makes it possible to prime Black Berkey⢠Elements easily offline, without the need for faucets or hose connections. Priming the Black Berkey⢠Elements saturates the filters with water prior to their use, allowing for clean water production anywhere.
The Black Berkey Primer⢠also purges (or back-flushes) the Black Berkey⢠Elements using air instead of water to clean the proprietary pores of the compressed carbon filter wall. Purging the Black Berkey⢠Elements accomplishes two tasks:
(1) It clears the pores of debris that has accumulated with use.
(2) reduces the amount of time & effort needed to dry the filters prior to storing them. In addition, those who may be having difficulty priming their elements in a small sink, can use the Black Berkey Primer⢠instead.
2. How does the Black Berkey Primer⢠work?
With a Black Berkey⢠Element properly immersed in water & attached to it, the Black Berkey Primer⢠creates a simple pressure gradient which draws water into the center of each Black Berkey⢠Element. Once the Black Berkey⢠Element is completely saturated with water, it passes through the Black Berkey Primer⢠and squirts out of the opposite end.
3. Why do I need the Black Berkey Primer�
Every owner of a Berkey® Water System which uses Black Berkey⢠Elements will find it easier to prime and purge the filters, wherever the Berkey® is used. The Black Berkey Primer⢠is the final piece in making your Berkey® Water System your off-grid solution for clean drinking water and for everyday use. In addition, if you have a small sink or short faucet, the Black Berkey Primer⢠makes it easy to prime your Black Berkey⢠Elements.
4. How do I clean & store the Black Berkey Primer�
Black Berkey Primer⢠can be cleaned with a proper dilution of natural cleaning products, or mild soap and warm water. Components should be thoroughly rinsed & allowed to air dry prior to storage in a cool, dark, & dry place. Keep out of exposure from direct sunlight as UV light will breakdown the product. Do not microwave the Black Berkey Primer⢠.
5. Does the Black Berkey Primer⢠work with non-Berkey® filters?
The Black Berkey Primer⢠is specifically designed for use with Black Berkey⢠Elements.
Thanks,
