Introducing the New Go Berkey Kit

Introducing the New Go Berkey Kit

By Dan DeBaun

It's been a few years since a new Berkey Water Filter System had been launched, but this week we have the release of the New Go Berkey Kit. This kit includes a new small and compact stainless steel housing that comes with 1 Black Berkey Element, 1 Sport Berkey Bottle, and a Vinyl carrying case. This water filter system becomes the smallest of the line-up with a volume of 1 Quart. It's perfect for our customers who are looking for the highest quality in filtration in a small compact form that can be carried in a backpack, suitcase, or even a laptop bag. The New Go Berkey Kit

Review of The Go Berkey Kit

The Go Berkey Kit provides a long-awaited solution for many of our "on the go" customers. The sport berkey bottle is great for hiking or backpacking, and the new Berkey system allows for a personal continuous passive filtration setup at base camp. For those who travel often, this lightweight and portable system can be used in the car, hotel room, or remote office. The Go Berkey Kit is also valuable for vacation destinations where the bacteria in the water is known to be disruptive to non-natives. No matter how it's used, it's apparent that this new Go Berkey will be welcomed in many environments. Customers must keep in mind that this is only a 1 Qt (,95 Liters/ .25 Gallons) system and would support only one person on a daily basis. However, keeping that upper chamber full the entire time will result in 1 gallon/hour. In the event of an emergency or disaster, this would be sufficient to support a 2-3 individuals over an extended period of time.
