Berkey PF-2 Fluoride / Arsenic Filter (Set of 2) – Fits Black Berkey Purifiers Only
2Berkey PF-2 Fluoride / Arsenic Filter (Set of 2) – Fits Black Berkey Purifiers Only
- Removes: Fluoride, Arsenic V and pre-oxidized Arsenic III, as well as other residual heavy metal ions.
- It is recommended that each set of two PF-2 elements be replaced after 1,000 gallons. As an example, The Royal Berkey system is about 3.25 gallons and therefore the filters should be replaced after 307 (1,000/3.25 ) refills. Or in other words, If the system is refilled about one time per day they should be replaced after 10 months, if the system is refilled about twice per day they should be replaced about every 5 months.
- You simply screw the PF-2 Flouride filter into the Black Berkey filters.
- We do not bundle these as our price is so low, however you can order as many as you like
PF-2 reduction elements are designed for use in conjunction with Black Berkey water purification elements.
List Price: $ 59.99

Fluoride level tested to be 0.06 ppm,
We’ve had our Berkey for over a year. The fluoride filters are the main reason we purchased a Berkey. They are only good for six months. I tested my water twice to verify this. Our water comes from a well and is naturally fluoridated at about .9 ppm (parts per million). I tested a filter by purchasing a kit through 3M (about $20) after seven months of use and the water tested at 0.79 ppm. I replaced the filter and tested after about a month and the water came back to 0.06 ppm. Hardly any fluoride! I am curious to test my water again at the five month mark but not sure I want to spend an additional $20. I think I will just stick to the manufacturer’s recommendation of changing out ever six months. Overall, this is the way to go if you want to remove fluoride from your drinking water.
After seeing multiple reviews state that their water tested so high for fluoride I would be curious to ask when they tested their water. They might have misunderstood the directions and be using their filters after six months. The black filters can be used indefinitely, but the fluoride filters lose effectiveness after six months of use. Another possibility is the ph of their tap water. I think the ph of your water can affect the effectiveness. I am not a scientist but have read that the filters work better with slightly acidic water (pH range of 5.5 – 6.5 and generally don’t work well if the water is neutral (pH = 7) or more alkaline (higher pH). So if you want to be sure that your filter will work to filter out fluoride you could test the ph of your tap water first.

Does NOT remove Flouride,
HI, I bought a 3M FluoriCheck(tm) Water Analysis Service at […] to see what my Fluoride PPM is.. I got the disappointing results back of 1.1 ppm.. so I went onto my city’s water analysis page and their results show 1.25 ppm.. This PF-2’s with the Black Berky’s hardly work!
I’m switching back to Reverse Osmosis and adding a mineralization filter to put the good minerals back in and also make the water PH neutral. Don’t waste your money on the Berky if you want to get the fluoride out!
– I put this review on 5/1 and it was removed, so I’m putting it back on here so other’s don’t get suckered into the Berky scam.. They are obviously moderating reviews.
I came back on here to let you all know that I installed my RO setup and had the water tested again with the same kit.. 0.08 ppm of flouride. much better results than Berky.
