I only filter water that is already supposed to be clean, but I do not trust the local water supply. I don't get real paranoid about it and still rinse food with tap water. I use the Berkey for drinking and most cooking, tea, etc. It is a very simple system and I keep a spare set of filters. I change my filters at closer to 1000 gallons than 3000. I am also going to add the PF-2 filters, which I should probably use already.Berkey has priming instructions, but the replacement filters have much simpler instructions. Just install the new filters, being careful to keep the outlet end clean and fill the Berkey. Empty the fill then refill. The filters have been purged and prime. I suggest a 5 gallon bucket to drain the rinse water and I use this water for dishes or mop water or something similar. Replacement FiltersReceived product in great condition and within a week of ordering. Will use again.Get the best!Without a doubt, the best water my husband and I have ever tasted. We've tried numerous water filter/purification systems and nothing comes close to the quality and taste that we get from this system. If you live in an area with unusually high concentrations of heavy metals, the black berkey will take care of up to 95% of those metals (including lead, mercury, aluminium, cadmium, chromium and copper). Where the berkey really excels is with pathogenic bacteria, cysts, trihalomethanes, radiologicals (radon 222), inorganic materials like chlorine as well as a whole host of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).After searching the internet for about a week, and informing ourselves about this filter, we discovered that the average removal of contaminants using the berkey was rated at a LOG7 rating (99.99999%). Some sites claim as high as LOG9 (99.9999999%) of some of the contaminant removal. Although we can't verify these statistics, some of them came from what we believe to be official, reliable sources. We chose this system over a reverse osmosis system, mainly due to the cost factor (berkey is far cheaper and more efficient), as well as the lack of consensus within the scientific community over whether or not water gained from reverse osmosis is really that good for you. So, we opted for the berkey instead and are so happy we did. Also, in the event of an earthquake (we live on a major fault line), it would be handy to be able to get clean, safe drinking water anytime, anywhere, without the need for electricity or water pressure (you can take water out of a lake and purify it). Makes it handy in a do or die situation. We may sound like berkey employees, but we have no affiliation with them in any way, shape or form. We are just very satisfied customers and completely convinced of berkey's dedication to the quality of it's products. As their website states, "Berkey® Systems are the World's Most Powerful and Cost Effective Personal Water purification Systems Providing Reliable and User-friendly Water Purification in Both Normal and Hostile Filtration Environments."
