Spring Giveaway Week: Win a Royal Berkey Water Filtration System from LPC Survival ($283 Value)

Royal Berkey

There are few things more basic for human survival and health than having clean water to drink. 

My experience in the Philippines last spring reminded me afresh of how much we take it for granted that we do not have to struggle daily to access clean water, or for that matter, to access water at all. Those of us in North America or other developed parts of the world have such an incredible privilege of being able to turn on a tap to find drinkable water, safe from most types of bacteria, parasites, and disease.

Yet, even our water is not ideal. Run-off from commercial agriculture includes herbicides and pesticides. An alarming number of pharmaceutical drugs have been found in tap water. Then there are concerns over exposure to various heavy metals, among a host of other contaminants found even in our “clean” water.

Our family has always chosen to have some sort of water filtration system, even if it’s a very simple and inexpensive system like a Brita or PUR filter. A little over a year ago, we chose to upgrade to a Berkey system, based on many rave reviews that I had read, research and information provided by Berkey, and the fact that a number of health-minded companies I respected carried the Berkey line and highly recommended it.

A year later, I’m still so happy with our choice. Our Berkey Light is used constantly. The water tastes so fresh and pure. Friends and family that visit have commented on the wonderful taste.

The large capacity of the system is perfect for a family, as we can usually get away with refilling it about once per day (sometimes more if I’m using it for cooking water). It filters quite fast, although the best way to do it is to fill it before going to bed at night, for a full system of filtered water in the morning.

The Berkey Light. This is the system our family currently uses.

What exactly does the Berkey filter out?

Taken from the website:

The Royal Berkey® system removes pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites entirely and extracts harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes. It also reduces nitrates, nitrites and unhealthy minerals such as lead and mercury. This system is so powerful it can remove red food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance.

For more detailed information on exactly what these filters remove, see this page.

I love that the filters are self-sterilizing and that they can actually be cleaned when they the filtration rate begins to slow down. You simply take them out, rub them with ScotchBright pads under running water, and put them back in. A set of two filters (each system uses two at once) will last for 6,000 gallons!

    I grew up in Mount Pleasant, SC and recently moved to Columbia, SC and the water is so much more ‘hard’ than what I’m used to from the ultra clean Mt. P water. I’m sure that this water system would help me and my family to drink more water since it’ll taste ‘better’. Thank you for the great giveaway!

    It would be wonderful to know that the water we’re drinking is pure. There are many different water filters on the market but it’s so hard to know what they actually do and many really do so little. A Berkey would help us know for sure that our water is the best! Thanks for hosting this!

    I would LOVE to win one! We live in a rural area, where there is a lot of farming, and so I’m almost sure there are herbicides and pesticides in our well-water. And with 5 kids, who drink water almost exclusively, I just try not to think about the contaminants as we just can’t afford a good filtration system right now. I would LOVE to win!

    Wow! I would LOVE a Royal Berkey Water Filtration System! A friend of mine has one & she just loves it! It is way out of our price range though. I’ve been following a special diet to control my MS symptoms for almost 4 years now, & have recently started all of making my own cleaners (have been doing the basics for 1 year), shampoo, deodorant & lotions in attempts to improve my remaining symptoms. I have LOVED doing all of this! I don’t know if I would have started on this “journey” or not otherwise, but I am SO glad I have! It feels so much better to be doing things more natural & holistically! 🙂 Improving my drinking water is one of the last remaining items on my list… it would be SO awesome if you could help me out with that! :)))

    I’ve been starting to do more research on what exactly is in our water to make it safe, and all the chemicals that are considered hazardous elsewhere are going into the drinking water to keep it clean! My family has some basic water filters that we use, but I still have an aftertaste with the water. I would love to have a Berkley so that I know that it is truly clean water!

    I love that this water filtration system is lightweight, portable, and works even if there is no electricity. I’m also intrigued that the filters are self sterilizing and re-cleanable. The percentage of removal of harmful elements in our water also impresses me. I am interested in the system as gas drilling in the area poses a potential threat to water purity…I would feel confident with this purification system that our water would be safe to drink. Thanks for the chance to win one!

    I am so enjoying reading your blog. Just found it a few days ago. This water filter system has been on my wishlist too for a couple months. I am fighting Lyme disease and am wanting to do everything I can to boost my immune system. I have a filter on my water here in town, but I know it is not removing the flouride and who knows what else… did I enter the giveway by commenting or do I need to do something else? I could not find a form even though I think Javascript is enabled.
    Thank you!

I would love to win a Berkey light water filtration system because our family has been talking about getting some sort of filtration system for some time. There are so many to choose from and I took a break from searching. I like the idea that this is something you can take with you easily if you move. I was looking at the under sink options, but they get so expensive and there are so many features to choose from! I just want something that works and is not a gimmick. Even if it’s inexpensive, it needs to work or it’s still a waste of money! So this looks like the perfect option to start with to enter the world of water filtration!

    Our water here certainly isn’t ideal and can go “murky” at times during the winter. Right now we have a countertop filter system that needs replacing, and I’ve been fighting the expense of a new filter for that. The water tastes OK but I know, without a doubt, Berkey-filtered water is far superior in taste and healthfulness. Additionally, it’s much more cost-effective.

We just experienced a problem w/ ground water contamination in our city’s water source and for 4 months had to drink bottle water or boil water (with a family of 7 that’s a lot of water to boil). The problem has now been remedied, but our water has reeked of high chlorine levels for the last few weeks. A Berkey would be of great benefit to us 🙂

We live in an old house with old plumbing (1937!) and so I know we need better filtration, I just haven’t found the right thing yet. This may work for us.

We’ve started storing beans, rice, pasta, etc. But we still don’t have a way to provide clean drinking water in case of an emergency. Recent tornadoes have hit our area leaving us without power, and more tornadoes are expected to come as spring and summer approach. We know how vital it is to get this taken care of.

It seems that most do not; however, I was happy to see that LPC does offer add-on filters that do remove a large percentage of the fluoride (and arsenic) from the water source. So while I would still need to spend a little money on this filter setup, it would beat having to buy the whole kit-n-kaboodle!

I have been dying for a water filter, but lacking the funds to get one. This would be a tremendous blessing. I cannot even imagine how much it would be used! Thanks so much for hosting this.

    I would love one of these! Because they make the water safe again but they are way out of my budget.

    I, too, have been building up a survival kit for my family, and coming from the Philippines, I also understand how critically important it is to get clean water (and how difficult it can get). In fact, when I was a child, I didn’t listen to my mother when we went back to visit the little town we’re from, and I bought something at a local store that wasn’t made with the cleanest water. Needless to say, I learned my lesson quickly and painfully. I’ve been researching different water purifying systems, and I have to admit that I didn’t hear about this one until you blogged about it. Now I’m intrigued. I love how you can clean the filter and how the filters last for quite some time. I would love to win this. I know it’s a long shot, but if I do win, I would be very appreciative.

    On another unrelated note… did you go to the Philippines with Compassion International? You’re so lucky! I wish I could have gone. It has been almost an eternity since I’ve been back, and my sponsor child is in Mindanao (an area I’m afraid to venture to alone). If you did, I’m glad you had the opportunity to go AND that you were able to visit safely.

    We’ve got a Brita filter and that’s pretty good… But there’s still such a pronounced chemical-y taste :/ I use my Berkey Sport at work and it tastes a lot better! I would love for all of our water to be that clean!

    I’d like to win this for our friends’ cottage, which they have invited us to many times. We need to buy bottled water, as the water supply does not test up to drinking standards.

    We would have loved to have this system when we lived overseas.

    To be totally honest, I never worried about our water until our little six year old was diagnosed with cancer. We buy spring water now because we live in an older farmhouse. The challenge is having the spring water here for all of our cooking and drinking needs.

    My husband thinks buying a Berkey will not be much difference to our health. He seems to think pure water doesn’t exist. He used to work for a city water treatment and he believes the water is safe for consumption as is, and our fridge water filter is good enough. We also do not have the money for an expensive equipment. I would love to win this just because I don’t want to push this issue. I just know his health, and our health would be better if we can drink better water.

    I love the idea of a water filtration system that you don’t have to bother with plumbing changes and is big enough to only refill once a day. We have old pipes in our house and I’ve been wanting some sort of way to filter the water. This seems an ideal solution!
