Ask about K Series Specialty Add-On Filters
This is a supplemental filter and must be used together with compatible K Series or SS Series core filters.
Choose 5-Stage Reduce Fluoride if you want added fluoride reduction after the core filter stage.
Choose 3-Stage Alkaline Filter if you want an additional alkaline material layer designed to raise PH level.
Also works with Travel, Big, Royal, Imperial, Light, and Crown Berkey models as an additional gravity filter option.
Do not over-tighten during installation. Make sure the supplemental filter is securely attached to the core filter stem.
Replace the supplemental filters when the rated capacity is reached or when water flow becomes noticeably slower.
How to Use the Supplemental Filter
Follow these simple steps to prime, install, and use the supplemental filter correctly with your core filters.
Prime the Supplemental Filter
Before installation, remove the red sealing caps, place the priming washer on the inlet side, and rinse the filter under running water.
Install Below the Core Filters
Attach each supplemental filter to the stem of the core filter by turning it clockwise until secure.
Important Notice
Follow these care tips to help maintain proper use and avoid clogging, poor flow, or incorrect filtration.
How the Filter System Works
Water moves through the system by gravity. It first passes through the upper filter elements, then continues through the lower add-on filters before collecting in the lower chamber for dispensing.
Pour water into the top chamber. The system works without electricity, pressure, or plumbing.
Gravity pulls water downward through the upper filter elements as the first filtration step.
Water then continues through the lower add-on filters to support additional filtration performance.
Filtered water collects in the lower chamber and is ready to pour from the spigot when needed.
Filter Replacement Guide
Replacing filters on time helps your filtration system keep working properly. It also helps maintain water flow, drinking water taste, and everyday use confidence.
Filter life may vary by water quality, usage frequency, and total water volume filtered.
Replace the filters when they reach the rated lifespan listed for your filter model.
If filtering takes much longer than usual, clean or replace the filters as needed.
If unwanted taste or smell becomes noticeable again, it may be time to replace the filters.
Rain, river, stream, or well water may shorten filter life compared with regular tap water.
Choose filters that match your filtration system, filter series, and setup.
Prime, rinse, or flush new filters according to the product instructions.
Make sure washers, seals, and threaded parts are installed correctly.
Empty and clean the upper and lower chambers before installing new filters.
If your system uses paired filters, replace matching filters together when needed.
Write down the replacement date and set a reminder based on your usage.
