They are so powerful they can even take out red food coloring when added to water. Berkey filters are stand-alone systems that require no electrical outlet or water line. You can put them anywhere in an office or your home, and gravity does all the work. You just pour in a pitcher of water from the tap or catchment water. They last 5-10 years or 6,000 gallons for a pair of filters, which come with each Berkey.

"Had 3 Brothers install the plumbing for an apartment unit at my home. Disappointing customer service and complete inability to adhere to self imposed deadlines. Was given an estimate of my job only taking 3-5 days, when in fact it took 3 months. Plumbers would only work for a day and then disappear without notice, and would only come back for another days work after calling and asking where they were. The plumbing work was done decently enough, though the plumber left huge messes all throughout the project. They also used several of my tools without asking and didn't return them to where they found them. I was also charge an additional $375 because I asked for a Tee to be installed instead of a 90, which seemed a bit egregious. When I received the invoiced I raised my concerns with the owner and asked for some consideration as my project was pushed out several months causing me to incur many additional, unplanned expenses. My complaints were met with a half-hearted "sorry you feel that way" and a demand of payment letter, along with multiple threats of litigation if I did not pay in full. Owner refused to meet in person or discuss over the phone and just repeated the same threats every time I tried to speak to him about my concerns. Overall, very disappointed in the treatment I received and will not be using 3 brothers for future projects or recommending them to anyone else. In my opinion it would be better to use any number of their smaller, less expensive competitors as the turnaround time and quality is the same."

"Well, drilled and hooked up quicker than expected, to anticipated depth, bill came in less than estimate. Now, three years later my well quit due to an electrical problem from the previous well's wiring. I got ahold of Dustin and he helped me troubleshoot the problem over the phone. Turned out to be a control box that was installed on the old well (not H & L's well), but still in use since it was fairly modern components. Dustin told me what component to replace and viola, all is well. An inexpensive and quick fix. Thank you Dustin."

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.
"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Water softeners consist of three main components: a mineral tank, a brine tank, and a control valve. In some smaller units, the mineral tank and brine tank are combined into one cabinet.
Professionals install whole-home systems at the point of entry of the main water line. Smaller units are installed under sinks or near a washer—these units only soften the water for that fixture, not the entire home.
Mineral Tank: Hard water passes into the mineral tank through resin beads, and an ion exchange occurs. Magnesium and calcium ions are exchanged for sodium or potassium ions from the brine tank.
Brine Tank: The brine tank contains sodium or potassium to recharge the resin.
Control Valve: The control valve determines when to clean the resin beads.
Choosing between a salt-based or potassium-based water softener depends on your priorities. Salt-based systems effectively remove hard-water minerals, regenerate efficiently, and are cost-effective. However, they may not be ideal for individuals on low-sodium diets. Potassium-based systems neutralize minerals without removing them and regenerate more frequently. They are more expensive but offer a healthier and more environmentally friendly option. If sodium levels are a concern and cost isn't a major factor, a potassium system may be the better choice.
To calculate your water softener's capacity, determine your grains per gallon (GPG) number by:
Multiplying the number of people in your home by 90. The average number of gallons used per person for washing, drinking, and cooking ranges from 80 to 100 gallons per day.
Multiplying that result by the hardness of your water. The average grains per gallon in the United States is 10 but can range from 0 to 17. You can find your GPG number by purchasing an at-home water testing kit.
Installing a water softener takes between two to four hours on average. The exact duration depends on the complexity of the unit and whether additional plumbing or electrical work is required. If modifications to existing pipes are necessary, installation may take longer. Preparing the installation area by clearing any obstructions can help streamline the process.
Water softeners can last up to 25 years with proper maintenance and care. The lifespan depends on the type and quality of the unit you choose. Single-tank electric water softeners may last around 12 years, while higher-quality models tend to last longer. Regular maintenance, such as routine inspections and timely replacement of salts or potassium, helps extend the life of your system. Most water softeners require minimal repairs over their lifespan.
