I would like to ask how much $$$ is each filter and how many gallons can each filter give?

It's good in concept but it's a tiny charcoal filter. I just removed the contents of the filter (as the filter also makes a ninety degree dumping the fluid into the glass jar), purify the water into the glass jar, then filter it thru a brita water filter jug. Hope it helps.

Filters need to be changed every 3 months typically, and cost $40 for a 4 pack: http://www.steampure.com/shop/4-filters/So $10 per filter.

I removed the filters from my two machines. In my opinion, the water tastes better without them.

It produces 1 gallon of water at a time. I bought an extra filter but I don't remember how much it was. I love the machine!

That is the price per item. It is a large filter - about 6" across and 12" tall.

I think that the Brita filters I used to buy said 30 gallons. I change mine when it seems to run slow.

How long-equals how many gallons of water you filter in a month- been getting on average about 125 gallons from one filter. I purchase the filters in the 3 pack-which comes out to a little over ten dollars a filter- so if you buy water from the store its around a dollar a gallon so its a great value and its there when you want it,and you don't have to go play fetch to your area market.

i thought this can only filter 25 gallons? I'll have to go back to my manual to verify. 265 gallons seems like way too much. even my bad ass water filters on my fishtank can't do that many gallons.

It depends what filter, who you buy it from and how many gallons you run through it.

Sorry, I can't help. It was given as a gift and never checked the number of filters.

I'm sorry, I don't have the original box or directions and can't give you specifics, but I can tell you that I have a 20-gallon tank and this filter system has kept the tank-water crystal clear, continously for the past couple of years. I change the filter about once a month. I keep the old filters, wash them thoroughly, brush them off under running water, being careful to hold the top of the layer of material firmly so that it won't fall off. Then I dry & keep them, in order to put back in the rotation. I use each one three times.

I haven't exactly measured but I would say about 1-2 gallons of water (somewhere in between)

The upper portion uses 4 filters all at once. The Berkey web site states that the filter lifetime is 3,000 gallons per filter.

I used one whole bottle (which is more than they say to use) in about 40 gallons of water. This was to clean four round filters, that were 7" in diameter and 26" long. If you can find a container to fit your filter in, calculate its volume and use as much as they recommend.

They have 3 13,000 gallon ceramic filters so in theory 39,000 gallons. That can be done if you are not just filling it up with dirty water, so what you need to do is pre-filter the water through cheese cloth or a towel or something so that your not clogging up the filters. Then make sure to brush the filters clean once in a while and this will do great for you.

Hi Ronald you should at least filter 60 gals. of water.Filtration capacity will vary depending on quality of source water.

Amazon is mistaken. I do not own this filter so I cannot answer your question.

I have a filter system that works for up to 50 gallons. I use White Diamond Ammonia Neutralizing Crystals in it along with regular charcoal filter cartridges. I have a seperate media container that fits into my filter system that holds 4 ounces. (I use a 1/2 cup measure.) If you do the math.. 1 ounce of media should do about 12.5 gallons. *This should be changed out just as often as your charcoal filters (every 2 to 4 weeks).

One quart per 12 gallons or less, so even if you don't use the full 2 quarts you better get 'em. Hope this helps, would of responded sooner, but had a backlog of mail. Good luck!
