Berkey BioFilm Drops - Extend The Shelf Life of Water
Berkey BioFilm Drops have been scientifically engineered to defend biofilm formation in ceramic water filters, carbon (charcoal) filters, and water storage containers.
Berkey Biofilm Drops extend the shelf life of water stored for up to 5 years. Using Berkey Biofilm Drops eliminates the need to rotate stored water every 6 months and keeps it fresh, tasting, and odor-free.
You can test for residual ions in the stored water using the test kit enclosed with the drops. Berkey Biofilm Drops is a scientifically engineered and patented Copper-Silver ion solution that is safe and user-friendly.
Berkey Biofilm Drops may be used with any type of filter media and work especially well with the Black Berkey elements.
Biofilm readily forms in water filters, distribution lines, storage tanks, and other aqueous environments. It forms when bacteria excrete a slimy, sticky substance that allows them to adhere to surfaces.
The biofilm mass can consist of multiple species of bacteria and may include fungi, algae, and protozoa. Various scientific studies have demonstrated that up to 99% of bacteria do not live in the water; they live in the biofilm (a living environment and culture medium for bacteria), leaving only 1% that live in the water.
Traditional sanitizers such as chlorine and bromine destroy only these free-floating bacteria.
Berkey Biofilm Drops works by incorporating multiple barrier processes to inhibit the growth and regrowth of biofilms. They utilize natural mineral ions of copper and silver in an ion technology along with other additives and complexants to synergistically aid in controlling and precipitation of calcium, iron, minerals, and scale where biofilm bacteria attach, form, feed, and breed.
Berkey Biofilm Drops are simple to use and specially formulated for harvesting rainwater, long-term storage water containers, emergency preparedness, and disaster relief.

Adding Berkey BioFilm Drops to your Berkey water filter system will help keep your water clean and fresh for years to come.
It is a good idea to test the water first to ensure it is clean and free of contaminants. These drops also keep the water aerated to prevent algae and slime from growing in the tank.
Berkey BioFilm Drops is a patented solution incorporating multiple barrier processes to keep the water aerated and clean. These drops also help preserve the Black Berkey elements by preventing biofilm's potential growth within the element media, which will prolong the life of your elements.
The operating principles of Berkey Biofilm Drops™ are cutting-edge technology compared to that applied by traditional agents. The traditional use of sanitizing agents has been employed to destroy bacteria in the water. However, various scientific studies have demonstrated that up to 99% of bacteria do not live in the water. Still, they live in the bio-film (a living environment and culture medium for bacteria). Leaving only 1% of bacteria that actually live in the water. Traditional sanitizers such as chlorine and bromine destroy only these free-floating bacteria.
Berkey BioFilm Drops come in two fl oz containers. Each container treats a total of 330 gallons of water.
Berkey BioFilm Drops also have several other features, including a micro-filter to prevent scale buildup and a test kit to check if you have residual ions in your water.
Berkey BioFilm Drops are specially formulated for use in harvested rainwater containers, long-term storage water containers, and emergency preparedness and disaster relief. They maintain purity and fresh-tasting water.
