Blemished Berkey​® Systems: Same Great Performance, Special Price!

Blemished systems enable you to enjoy economic savings while being assured that the performance of your Berkey​® system has by no means been compromised. Cosmetically blemished Berkey​® systems come with the same warrantied Black Berkey​® Elements that have made Berkey​® by NMCL the leader in the industry.

Blemished Berkey​® systems are identified by a distinctive “B” stamped on the upper and lower stainless steel chambers, which indicates that the chambers ARE NOT warrantied against cosmetic defects. However, the ​Black Berkey​® Elements carry the standard 2-year pro-rated limited warranty,​ which provides you with the same performance and longevity that you would experience with any of our non-blemished Berkey​® systems.
