How we repair your Berkey Water Filtration System
A water filtration system passes household water through sediment, carbon or specialty media to remove dirt, chlorine, odors and other contaminants. A water filtration system uses valves, filters or resin, pumps or carbonators, a control head or timer, and sometimes a small refrigeration or heating system. A technician checks water pressure and flow, filter and media condition, controls and seals.

Common Berkey Water Filtration System problems we fix
What usually causes each symptom, and what our technician checks to confirm it.
Staining or iron still present
- Likely causes
- Media exhausted, wrong media for the water chemistry, or insufficient backwash flow.
- What our technician checks
- Water is tested for iron, manganese and pH to confirm the media matches the water.
Low water pressure
- Likely causes
- Clogged sediment or carbon cartridges, an undersized filter for the flow demand, or a fouled media tank on backwashing systems.
- What our technician checks
- Pressure is measured before and after the filter housing and cartridges are inspected for loading.
Sediment or carbon fines in water
- Likely causes
- A torn sediment cartridge, a new carbon filter not flushed, or a failed distributor in a media tank.
- What our technician checks
- Cartridges are inspected for damage and a media tank is checked for media escaping to service.
Filter housing leaking
- Likely causes
- A pinched or dry O-ring, a cracked housing bowl, or a housing overtightened or cross-threaded.
- What our technician checks
- The housing is depressurized and the O-ring, threads and bowl are inspected.
Taste or odor returns
- Likely causes
- Spent carbon media, bacterial growth in an old cartridge, or water bypassing the media.
- What our technician checks
- Filter change dates are checked and bypass valves and cartridge seating are inspected.
Backwashing system not cycling
- Likely causes
- Control valve clock or board failure, a stuck piston, or power loss.
- What our technician checks
- A manual backwash is started to watch valve movement and drain flow.
Quick checks you can do safely
- Check the date of the last cartridge change.
- Open the bypass valve to see if pressure returns.
- Lubricate the housing O-ring with food-grade silicone when changing filters.
- Run water for several minutes after installing a new carbon filter.
