Read the full product description
The Berkey Prime Kit (Priming Starter Kit) is a practical accessory set for Berkey water filter users who use Black Berkey filter elements. It helps you prime your filters more easily, improves water flow and allows you to check whether everything is installed correctly.
Why priming matters
New (or long unused) Black Berkey filters often need to be primed first. Priming helps “activate” the filter so water can flow through properly and more consistently.
What’s included
-
Prime tool – makes priming Black Berkey filters quicker and easier
-
Anti-airlock pin – helps prevent air locks and can improve flow rate
-
2 bottles of red priming/test liquid – used to verify correct installation and sealing
Who is it for?
-
New Berkey users (first-time setup)
-
When flow rate is low due to air trapped in the system
-
If you want extra confidence that the filters are installed correctly
Tip: Priming + a quick installation check often prevents slow flow and setup frustration.
