The "Tortuous Path" structure of these pores gives it its unique characteristics. The 22 Oz Sport Berkey Portable Water Purifier is durable, made from safe non-leaching LDPE #4 that is BPA-Free, and offers a convenient and portable filtration system using medical grade technology.
Note: If using a source of water that might contain extreme bacteriological or viral contamination, it is recommended that two drops of plain chlorinated bleach or iodine be added to each refill before filtering. This will kill minute pathogens such as viruses. The disinfectant will then be filtered from the water entirely removing its odor, color and taste.
Care and Use
Fill the Sport Berkey Portable Water Purifier with water, screw on cap and tighten securely to eliminate leaks. Flush water through filter by pulling down lever, so that straw is exposed, and squeeze water through filter & out the straw. Repeat this flushing process twice before drinking. This removes excess process dust from the filter. After 2 flushes, rinse the bottle & cap. Your sport berkey bottle is now ready for use. Enjoy!
Maintenance and Storage
The 22 oz Sport Berkey Portable Water Purifier has a shelf life of 50 years. When the filter system will not be used for an extended period, flush the unit with a chlorinated solution of 1/4 tsp. per one half gallon of water. Allow to dry thoroughly with cap removed. Re-assemble and stow. Do not allow sport berkey to freeze, do not place in microwave oven and do not run hot water through the filter. Note: All contaminants that this filter has the ability to remove or reduce may not necessarily be in the user's water supply.

"I got 2 of these free with my Berkey and they work great. I've only had them for a couple months, but my children now use these when they go play in the woods, and my husband and I have used them on a couple of hiking excursions. Very pleased."
