LIMITED TIME PROMOTION
** THIS ITEM IS AVAILABLE ON PRE-ORDER AND WILL SHIP IN APPROXIMATELY 10 DAYS
Cosmetically blemished Berkey systems include the same warrantied Black Berkey Purification Elements. Cosmetic blemishes may include scratches, dents, discolored spots on the finish or irregular polish marks. Blemished Berkey systems are identified by the 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 Purification Elements carry the standard 2-year pro-rated limited warranty, which provides them with the same performance and longevity that they would experience with any of our non-blemished Berkey systems.
** We do not provide FREE shipping of Berkey Product to HI or AK.
