Doulton W9121200 7" Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter Candle - Pack of 2

takes forever to go through the filter. This is excactly what you look for with a good filter! Good Job Dalton

I used two 12 quart Stock Pots from Walmart. Drilled them out and installed these two filters with a stainless steel spigot I bought from Amazon. Works great and the total for the homemade system was under $100.

I like everything about these filters. They really do filter out the taste of less than perfect quality water, as well as small impurities. And leaves the filtered water crystal clear and tasting good. I prefer these white Sterasyl filters, they are easier to clean so you can prolong the life of them than the black Berkey type filters. Much easier to start with new filters, less hassle with priming them.

Had these filters for about 2 weeks as a cheaper replacement, I put blue food colouring in the water tank for the test,was a dark blue,it came out filtered with a noticeable light blue tinge,I don't think they'd filter fluoride,if you have reasonably clean water their ok, if your water is bad I think you'd probably be better of with the more expensive big name brands.

After doing a lot of research on replacing our Berkey filters after 4 years, we settled on these. We wanted filters that had more 3rd party data on filtering ability and build quality. These have been GREAT. The water tastes great and passes the red-dye test without a problem. We think the water tastes better with these over the Berkey filters. Product arrived quickly and there was no need to prime these filters before installing. They did take a couple days to fully saturate and get up to full filtering speed. They filter slower than the Berkey black filters but that's not an issue for us. If you think they're not working at first, they are. Just give it a couple days until they're ready.
