| Content | Stainless steel is used for most Berkey products because of the many benefits this material offers as a food or drink container. Stainless steel is long-lasting and safe. It is also solid so it can easily hold the weight of several gallons of water.
The Berkey Stainless Steel Stand adds style and functionality to your water filter setup. The rubberized feet are made of non-marking, non-marring rubber bonded to the stand for extra durability and stability. These polished stainless steel stands are 6" tall, allowing you to fit a cup or mug beneath the spigot easily. Available for all stainless steel Berkey units. | The Big Berkey comes standard with the following:
- Stainless steel canister
- Set of 2 Black Berkey filters (4 for an additional $125)
- Plastic spigot
- 2 blocking plugs
- This system can hold up to 4 Black filters and 4 PF-2 fluoride filters (optional)

Reduce the amount of plastic your drinking water touches and enjoy the aesthetics of stainless steel. This spigot is made of high-quality 304 food-grade stainless steel. The washers are made of food-grade silicone. It fits all stainless steel Berkey units, as well as most beverage dispensers. The quarter-turn ball valve increases flow speed for faster fill-ups!
Note: This spigot does not support the Berkey Sight Glass™ Spigot (Water View Spigot).

Aquamira Water Treatment 1 oz.
Aquamira 1 oz. Water Treatment (Chlorine Dioxide) kills bacteria while enhancing the taste of treated water. Everything you need to treat 30 gallons in the field comes in a compact, lightweight kit and works in virtually every situation. ItÂ’s so effective, even the CDC recommends Chlorine Dioxide as the most comprehensive water treatment available.
Technical Information
Chlorine dioxide is generated when the Aquamira® Water Treatment comes in contact with water. Chlorine dioxide is iodine and chlorine free. The unique formula works by releasing nascent oxygen, a highly active form of oxygen, which is a strong oxidant and a powerful germicidal agent. Chlorine dioxide has been used by municipal water treatment plants to kill a variety of waterborne pathogens since the late 1940s. Unlike free chlorine (familiar as household bleach) or other halogen chemicals (such as iodine), chlorine dioxide does not create potentially harmful by-products.
AquamiraÂ’s key benefits are clearly evident when compared to the other common portable water treatment chemicals such as iodine. Chlorine dioxide is a significantly stronger oxidant than iodine, with greater pathogen killing power. Unlike iodine, chlorine dioxide kills protozoan cysts such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia which are responsible for over 80% of waterborne illnesses. Chlorine Dioxide does not discolor water, nor does it give water an unpleasant taste. In fact, chlorine dioxide is often used to improve the taste of water by neutralizing unpleasant flavors.
Features and Benefits
- Kills odor causing bacteria and enhances the taste of stored potable water
- Treatment has a 4 year shelf life from manufacturing date
- Treats up to 30 gallons
- Easy to Use
- No Aftertaste
- Made in the USA
- EPA Reg. No. 71766-1
