Why Large Families Choose Crown Berkey
The massive 6-gallon Crown Berkey is our largest and most powerful system. With capacity for 4-12+ people and expandable up to 8 Black Berkey filters, it delivers the fastest filtration rates for households, offices, and groups that demand serious water capacity.
Removes 200+ Contaminants
Powerful Black Berkey filters remove PFAS, lead, chlorine, mercury, arsenic, VOCs, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and hundreds more at industry-leading reduction rates.
Perfect for Large Groups
6-gallon capacity serves 4-12+ people comfortably. Ideal for large families, offices, small businesses, or anywhere high-volume clean water is essential.
Fastest Filtration
Filter up to 8 gallons per hour with 2 filters, or expand to 8 Black Berkey elements for a blazing 16 GPH max flow rate. The fastest Berkey system available.
Works Anywhere
No electricity or water pressure needed. Perfect for everyday use, camping, emergency preparedness, off-grid living, or anywhere clean water is a priority. Gravity does the work.
Saves Thousands vs Bottled Water
Just pennies per gallon. A large family drinking bottled water spends $1,000+ annually. The Crown Berkey pays for itself in months while delivering superior filtration.
Built to Last a Lifetime
Constructed from 304 stainless steel. Backed by our exclusive lifetime warranty on hardware purchased through this website. This is the last water filter you'll ever buy.
What Black Berkey Filters Remove
Black Berkey Elements remove over 200 contaminants at industry-leading reduction rates
When fitted with authentic Black Berkey elements, this system is so powerful it can remove food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance.
How the Crown Berkey Water Filter Works
The Crown Berkey Water Filter system is constructed of highly polished 304 stainless steel and comes complete with 2 Black Berkey filtration elements (expandable to 8), 2 chambers (upper and lower), a lid, a nylon spigot (can be upgraded to a stainless steel spigot, sight glass spigot, or stainless waterview spigot), a rubber gasket base, and 2 blocking plugs. The system also includes a Primerite Kit, an anti-airlock clip, and red food dye for testing.
The Crown Berkey Water Filter can treat any water source—well water, tap water, or untreated water in regions where water quality may be questionable. Perfect for large families, offices, small businesses, or anywhere you need high-capacity access to clean drinking water.
If you're concerned about arsenic and/or fluoride in your drinking water, you can install a set of 2 Berkey PF-2 Fluoride and Arsenic filters (or up to 8) into the lower chamber as an optional add-on.
Flow Rate & Fluoride Removal
Max Filtration Flow Rate:
- With 2 Black Berkey Elements: Up to 8 gallons per hour
- With 4 Black Berkey Elements: Up to 16 gallons per hour
- With 6 Black Berkey Elements: Up to 16 gallons per hour
- With 8 Black Berkey Elements: Up to 16 gallons per hour (maximum capacity)
Fluoride Removal: Up to 8 PF-2 fluoride and arsenic reduction filters may be installed in the lower chamber if desired. With the optional PF-2 filters, you're no longer at the mercy of town water fluoridation practices.
