I've seen the thread on Katadyn filters at Galyans, but I am much more inclined towards the Big Berkey. I have seen various prices in the past, and now that I am nearly ready to get mine, wonder where you have found the best prices for them? FYI, Northern VA is my area, but will also mail order if necessary. Thanks in advance!

Elaine,

You can use the same Doulton ceramic or carbon/ceramic filter cartridges that make the Berkey so effective, set up as siphon filters, for less money. See http://www.pwgazette.com, email Gene Franks at gene@pwgazette.com or call 940-382-3814 for details. He's in Texas but ships promptly.

No financial interest here, just a satisfied customer.
