DIY Emergency 5 Gallon Water Filter / Filtration System for $35 SHTF Bushcraft Berkey Royal Doulton



This video shows how to make and use the home made Berkey type water filtration system. This one is made for less than $35 in parts and you will see that it will turn the nastiest of Oklahoma water in to clean SAFE drinking water in a reasonable amount of time. This system is NOT super fast (yet…give me time) but it will clean 5 gallons of drinking water in about 24 hours (Website says 14 per day) . I believe that I may have figured out how to speed that up to 5 gallons in an hour or so, stop back and see it I make that work. This works GREAT and is SOOO much cheaper than the store bought systems that do the same thing.

Build your own off of Amazon!!! Add Air pressure and make it 4x as fast!!!

Review After 5 Years Pelican PC600 Whole House Water Filter Carbon Series

Pelican PC600 Whole House Water Filter Carbon Series

Pelican PC600 First Review

View the Pelican PC600 here

This filter has been working without problem except for a minor issue talked about in the video. Even if you filter your water for inside AND outside use with a 2 person household, it would be hard to approach the 600,000 gallon limit. You don’t need much more than this to have clean water. If you have 4 people in a home, I recommend bypassing your plumbing so that water is only filtered for inside use.

Do not buy into soft water filtration unless you have very very hard water and avoid using RO water for drinking. Those units waste 10 time more water than they produce and demineralized water is the opposite of healthy anyway.

In most cases, chlorinated water poses no human health risks that so many people try to elicit. But for a piece of mind and to possibly make your life a little easier, simple whole home carbon filtration is the way to go.
