Wonderfully explained. Thank you. You do need to prime the filters before first use. I screw them in upside down, and run water through it twice then reverse them back to filter position.

Thanks! I use this thing daily. Drill 21 holes and that’s about all that it takes to put these together.

Good video with a surprise for me! You took out the original aluminium (ribbits)( my English is not that good) for stainless steel bolts..that is something I never saw before but you are wright about that. So many thanks. Hope more people will realise that with a dumbs up for this video.

Yep, those aluminum rivets eventually corrode. Stainless is the answer. Thanks for your comment and I hope you make one!

Pro tip: use a center punch prior to drilling to properly align your hole and aid drill bit alignment. I use my fancy automatic one every time I drill a hole on metal

How did you check to make sure no water was leaking from the holes you drilled for the filters ? I didn't see a gasket.

I was wondering what type of black carbon filters did you use on this project? I not sure if they would fit because of the height of the filter.

Here's the link. You can use any filter you like, just make sure your holes are drilled to the right diameter. amzn.to/4anHSIe

Does it ever overfill? Thank you
@DIYPrimitive
4 ай бұрын
It can if you over fill it. I simply add 3 gallons at a time and I never overfill it. The spigot level indicator lets me know how much is in the bottom reservoir so when it’s all the way down, you can add 4 gallons and never worry about.

Love the video. Are any of the filters interchangeable with the Alexa Pure or Berkey system. The cost of those filters is so out of budget. God bless you.

Any filter can be substituted by drilling the appropriately-sized holes.

I could. However with shipping and handling, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be cost effective. Consider that this project only requires one to drill holes, so maybe a friend could help you.

Gravity Filters Gravity / Ceramic cartridge filters are designed to remove certain pathogens from perfectly clear water such a mountain stream. If there is any silt in the water they will plug up and not allow water to flow through. You can scrub the cartridge, but soon you will reduce the thickness of the media and then it will not remove all of the pathogens. YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST PRE-FILTER THE WATER UNTIL IT IS PERFECTLY CLEAR. This can be done by a combination of settling, flocculation, sand filtering, and/or common cartridge type sediment filters that are easily available. If you don't believe this, take out all but one of your ceramic cartridges, plug the other holes, add some dirty water like what you will have to use during a crisis, see how much water you can run through it before it plugs up your ceramic cartridge. You will ruin one cartridge but you will know the truth! Another issue: if there is water in a ceramic cartridge, even a little, and that cartridge is allowed to freeze, a fine crack can occur that will allow pathogens through. You may not know it as you cannot see the crack. NEVER ALLOW YOU CARTRIDGES TO FREEZE!

OK. If you’re mentioning sediment, then your filtration system is not working that well. It’s just that simple. Pass.
