Crown Berkey™ Water Filter – 22.7L
Bring everyone together around a generous supply of filtered water.
Whether you’re sharing a home with extended family, hosting a weekend gathering or setting up a communal kitchen, the Crown Berkey gives everyone a convenient place to fill their glass or bottle. As the largest stainless-steel system in the Berkey range, it offers generous water storage for places where a smaller filter would need frequent refilling.
Great for off-grid living: Gravity-powered operation means no electricity, plumbing or permanent installation—ideal for an off-grid home, rural retreat or shared cabin.
Our largest Berkey: approximately 22.7 litres of filtered-water storage.
Suited to larger groups: approximately 6–12 people, depending on daily water use.
Genuine filters included: supplied with two Black Berkey® elements.
Capacity to expand: accommodates up to eight Black Berkey® elements for faster filtration.
Want fluoride reduction? Add compatible Berkey PF-2® filters, sold separately.

Why Choose the Crown Berkey?
More water on hand for everyone The Crown is designed for customers who prioritise capacity. Its generous lower chamber provides a shared supply for drinking, filling bottles and preparing meals, making it a practical choice for larger households and group settings.
Flexible filtration as demand grows The system comes with two Black Berkey® elements and has room for four, six or eight. Installing additional elements increases filtration speed, helping replenish the lower chamber more quickly when water use is high. Additional elements are sold separately.
Genuine Black Berkey® filtration included Black Berkey® elements have undergone independent laboratory testing for the reduction of a broad range of contaminants, including heavy metals, pesticides, VOCs and perfluorinated chemicals.

Filter Life The manufacturer recommends replacing a pair of Black Berkey® elements after approximately 22,700 litres (6,000 US gallons), or sooner depending on incoming water quality.
Actual service life varies with water conditions, sediment levels, use and maintenance. Follow the supplied cleaning and replacement instructions rather than treating the stated capacity as a guaranteed lifespan.
