Performing the Red Food Dye test on Black Berkey Elements (Test is especially recommended for untreated water)
- Protect surfaces and clothing, gloves are recommended.
- Start with an empty system (upper and lower chamber) and remove any Berkey PF-2™ Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Filters(if installed). The Berkey PF-2™ Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Filters must be removed prior to performing a red food coloring test in order to stay in compliance with the six month warranty on the Berkey PF-2™ Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Filters .
- Place the upper chamber only (with the elements installed) on similar- sized cups directly underneath each Black Berkey™ This will help isolate which filter may be exhausted and which is still purifying effectively.
- Fill the upper chamber with water and add 1/8 teaspoon of ARTIFICIAL red food coloring for every gallon of water. Must contain FD&C Reds 40 & 3. (Read product label)
- Allow the water to run through to the bottom chamber.
- If the red food coloring is removed entirely, your purification system is working properly.
- If the water in any of the cups is red or has a pinkish tinge, then that particular black filter is defective or exhausted.
