For this test, see also our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/en\/instruction-videos-berkey-water-filters\/\">instructional videos<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the first step in preparing a Berkey water filter is priming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/en\/products\/black-berkey-water-filter-elements\/\">Black Berkey filter elements<\/a>. It is important that this is done properly, otherwise purifying the water will take a very long time. Priming should be done before inserting the so Black Berkey elements into the Berkey water filter. Priming involves forcing some water through the element under a small pressure to ensure that the Black Berkey purification element gets wet inside (air goes out of the element). As a result, you benefit from hefty filter speed from each element. To prime, you can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/en\/products\/priming-button-black-berkey-elements\/\">Priming Button<\/a>, a small rubber ring that allows you to run the element on a tap. This comes standard with the Black Berkey filter elements in the box. Or so you use the PrimeRite Universal Primer, part of this Priming Starter Kit. In addition, this kit thus includes an adapter for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/en\/products\/fluoride-and-arsenic-filter-elements\/\">Fluoride &amp; Arsenic filters<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/en\/products\/berkey-waterfilter-anti-airlock-clip\/\">Anti-Airlock Clip (Vapor Lock Clip)<\/a> for when the Berkey water filter happens to vacuum and red dye to check if the Berkey water filter is installed properly. So with this, you're all set for the perfect Berkey experience!<\/p>\n<p><b>The manual for this Priming Starter Kit can be downloaded here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternatievemiddelen.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Handleiding-Berkey-Waterfilters-Priming-Starter-Kit.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a>.<\/b><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><b>-&gt; NOTE: This Priming Starter Kit comes standard in the box of a Berkey water filter (except for damaged models) and therefore does not need to be ordered separately!<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Berkey Water Filter Priming Starter Kit helps priming Black Berkey filters and checking your Berkey water filter with red dye! <\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":23807,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2971,3099,3013],"product_tag":[2961,3021,2974,3022,2976,3023,3024,3025,3026,3027,3019,3028,3029,3030,3020,2885,2979,3012,2980,2981],"merk":[3432,3702],"class_list":{"0":"post-34435","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-waterfilters","7":"product_cat-waterfilter-elementen","8":"product_cat-waterfilter-accessoires","9":"product_tag-berkey","10":"product_tag-berkey-waterfilters-priming-starter-kit","11":"product_tag-black-berkey","12":"product_tag-faucet","13":"product_tag-filterelement","14":"product_tag-prime-rite","15":"product_tag-prime-rite-fluoride-element-adaptor","16":"product_tag-prime-rite-universal-primer","17":"product_tag-primen","18":"product_tag-primer","19":"product_tag-priming-starter-kit","20":"product_tag-reinigen","21":"product_tag-rode-kleurstof","22":"product_tag-set","23":"product_tag-vapor-lock-clip","24":"product_tag-water","25":"product_tag-waterfilter","26":"product_tag-waterfilters","27":"product_tag-waterzuivering","28":"product_tag-zuiver","29":"merk-berkey","30":"merk-boroux","32":"first","33":"instock","34":"taxable","35":"shipping-taxable","36":"purchasable","37":"product-type-simple"},"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[44176,34341,34462,34415],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1 -
