Actually almost all your modern filters can do it pretty easily. If it didn't it would be a scam. Getting the sugar out seems like is the real test. As only a few have done that, and one was a reverse osmosis machine, hah. Expensive as hell so it better have. Anyway I have no opinion. I'd like to see an actual lab test for what particulates it gets out. Like heavy metals, chemicals, and microorganisms. Then we are talking. Also screw the PPM test. I think it is over rated.
If you have well water with a bad smell or taste it can be a number of reasons from sulfur, iron and bacteria. I would recommend getting a uv lamp and possibly whole home water filtration system to protect you from any contamination in the water
@@FobTob I agree well water is higher quality then what you can get from the city directly from the tap. Water from the city or well I would recommend treating it to reduce contamination in the water best practices can go a long way to keep us healthy for the people we need to support.
If your well water stinks, you should get an air stone with a little compressor and drop it down in there to aerate the water. This will reduce sulfur gas and other contaminants in your well water. This works by introducing air into the system, which oxidizes the sulfuric acid and reduces odors.
@@txmack1 He is already putting it through a filter to purify the water.... he was trying to figure out a way to get the smell out. Oxygenating the water will do that. I think you misunderstood.
I couldn't tell you were being sarcastic. Any modern filter should clear the dye. Seems like getting all the sugar is the real trick. I'd like to see real tests like testing for heavy metals, chemicals, and microorganisms. With two years being before then after for his well water. Also not just a PPM test. I've seen someone test that between a few filters, and the one that had the least amounts of particulates also had more nasty things in it. Basically got rid of the good minerals, and left all the nasty heavy metals in it.

It's actually a quite old and simple filter used in many asian countries wven today. The porous cylinder in the top chamber filters out the sediments amazingly. However, it still isn't enough to filter some microbial impurities which modern RO+UV filters do. And considering today's water polution goes way beyond just sediment impurities, this type of filter, unfortunately isn't enough to purify
They Found that Berkey doesn’t even have a legit labyested filtration approval rating! Wonder if this is just Berkey rebranding to slid under the radar
Have a berkey but filter aren't tested to nsf standards they cheaped out or don't pass. Now using rainfresh filters. I filter lake water with then and get then tested twice a month over two years and always comes back great from the lab

You can get an under sink water filter system for like $170 it comes with a one gallon tank and a faucet to put on your sink for drinking water it filters everythinggg there reverse osmosis filters
@@NomadicIslanders you have to change them about once a year it depends on the total dissolved solids in your water usually well water has a lot of them but it’s about 60 bucks a year.
@@NomadicIslanders The tankless carbon filter needs change about once a year it's $30 the ro filter need changed every 2 to 3 years it's more expensive
You need to get a filter that has pore size of 0.0001 for your need. A good quality RO filter should have that. Also use a TDS meter to test the actual TDS for your water before and after filteration.
I'm glad you actually test out the product and don't just appease the sponsor. If it's crap I'd like to trust that you still say it is crap. Otherwise *everything* you tell us is put into question.
Actually all their claims are lies. Check out the many class action lawsuits against them! There are much better filters available that will fit in your vessel. Please do some research! Your water contains many toxic chemicals. Ive been researching daily for a month. It’s a deep rabbit hole, but worth the effort.
If you have a well system run a water lab report and give it to a water treatment company to help identify what pre treatment you need then get an ro as final stage🙃
Have you tried a water softener setup on your houses water yet? I live out in the country with a well but ever since we got the softener the sulfur taste is gone
Jax Roberts a water softener will not remove hydrogen sulfide from your water it's not capable or designed to do so. What it is doing is removing calcium, magnesium and iron. The Iron could be associated with a non pathogenic bacteria that feeds on Iron and produces a rotten egg smell as a byproduct. You remove the Iron and the smell is gone also. 40+ years in the water treatment business is my experience.
To get the smell out of your well water pump the house water into a large tank first preferably with the sprinkler subject in the oxygen and then take the outgoing from about halfway up the tank and remember to clean this tank thoroughly twice a year
Pretty good. An AquaTru would take it to clear water. They have a demo on their site showing cola to clear water. I have one. It's AWESOME! (BTW, It's the only one Erin Brockovich will use)
@@Christian-Pickles I posted one link but I'm not sure if YT will delete it sooooo do a Google search for Aquatru and Erin Brockovich. There are press releases, YT videos, interviews, etc.
@@metallingusmode3918 I am surprised as you are, that the US has found the ceramic water filter after so many decades. I remember having one since the 80's.
@@KenshinPhoenixWhich is the best filter available for these gravity fed systems! Berkeys claims are all lies. I use the British filters after much research.
After seeing this video, I started reading about this filter, and after about a week, I was sold. I bought it and have absolutely loved it every day since. Thanks.
I've been watching the Water Filter Guru Channel (no affiliation), and there's a lot more to filters than reduced PPM count. Some filters added contaminants after filtration. Many filters didn't have certification for their filters or container material safety. Some filters struggled with specific contaminants. Some filters were comparably expensive for filter replacement. The conclusion was: it might be prudent to test the water you are trying to filter, then buy the filter system specific to the water and contaminants. For example: I like the 'Zero Water' filter but it apparently had an issue with filtering Chloroform and seemed to struggle with organic contaminants. Added to this was the comparitive high cost of it's filters. It's NSF certified for the reduction of 6 substances of the 43 substances in total that they advertise. Apparently there's an issue with filter life, and hot conditions degrading the filter faster, and causing a fish smell in the water. Anyway,do your research folks.
I could probably help with your well water issues. Do you have a softener? Do you have an iron curtain? Do you use sediment filters? Do you have an r/o system? When's the last time you replaced your pressure tank? Have you ever had an air lift performed?
I had a problem with foul tasting water from my well. I thought it was sulfur and spent tons of money on filters to take the sulfur taste out of the water, but it did not work then one day I was down at the pump, and I decided to re-pressurize the tank and all the bad taste left the water maybe try to re-pressurize in your tank
If you need to take smell and taste out of your well water, you can get inline filter systems installed for that. Sometimes it's as simple as installing an inline micronizer and switching to a conventional tank instead of a bladder tank
A great way to get rid of the sulfur taste and smell from well water which can be drank safely in Colorado is to pasteurize it in large glass containers
honestly, that's impressive. i dont see any electrical outlet. all gravity and filter. I wanna see a PPM meter used to determine how good it is with tap water.
Why didnt you go with a Berkey? We have the largest size and it does a phenomenal job filtering out the iron from our well water. We use 4 filters so water filters faster.
Berkeys claims are all lies! That’s why they’re being sued to kingdom come. There are better filters for less money that will fit your tank! Please do some independent research and verify this information. I was shocked by what I learned!
I wanna get a distiller cause the water here is gross but all the distillers ALSO have filters that you’re supposed to replace which is annoying cause the whole point of using distillation is that you don’t have to bother with filters. It seems like the only way to get a true distiller is to buy one of those massive expensive industrial ones.
The best filter hands down is the zero water, leaves absolutely zero dissolved solids in water, unfortunately that also means it takes the minerals needed for rehydration
i just got a pack of spigots for 2 dollars on amazon, used two free 5 gallon food grade buckets, got the filters i like and drilled some holes installed the filters and spigot, stacked buckets. been using it for quite a few years now.
Honestly for anyone wanting a good filter like this, life straw sells a large cooler style filter, it’s amazing and will filter the worse water you have seen. I have use their products in Asia and they make the best filters I have used
Sawyer makes a quality filter as well... Comparable to Lifestraw? ( which I have a couple of, some Sawyers too, but these are "traveling" versions, not home versions. Thoughts? A lot of opinions here ... anecdotal
Maybe you need a new pipe from the well to the house? The tap water in the house I'm in is not safe to drink according to my landlady, so rusty the tub drain clogs every 2 weeks
Idea: stack up 5 versions of the filter ontop of eachother for ultimqte filtration, drown it with like 20 2 liter bottles of soda, then see if it can handle it
You should look at a Sterling brand iron out filter. It takes my red undrinkable well water and when combined with their water softener to crystal clear water. It removes 99% of the sulfur and iron.
If you search the interwebs enough you can find the original project in a clear container and an explanation of how it works and what it is made of ( iam hopingit is the nanocarbon one)
I HOPE YOU SEE THIS. Try Zero Water it comes with a digital reader that tells you how clean the water is. When you run water threw their filter and run the little reader in the water it comes out reading: 0%.
