In lieu of Black Berkey® Elements not being available, Berkey is pleased to Introduce the "Phoenix New Millennium Edition™ Water Filter Elements".
New Millennium Edition™ water filters by Berkey are exclusively formulated for New Millennium Concepts, Ltd., as economical replacement filters for use in Berkey® gravity-fed water filter systems and other brands of gravity-fed water filter systems.
Made from CTC-60 coconut shell carbon, each pair can filter up to 5,500 gallons of water, removing up to 99.9% of contaminants and transforming water from most sources into clean, safe drinking water. To maintain peak performance, choicewaterfilters.ca recommends replacement every 12 months.
- Certified by NSF International for NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 372.
Our NSF certification is pending and are still waiting for NSF to update the NSF listing with our official name of the Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition™ Filter Elements and part number. (As of Nov 3rd, 2025)
-
Designed for a High-Performance Flow Rate – A pair filter up to 4.2 gallons per hour per pair
- Filters are fully compatible for use with Berkey PF-2® Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Elements.
- Includes: two Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition™ Filter
Elements with two washers, two wing nuts, PrimeEasy™ Universal Primer and plastic squeeze bottle for easy priming, two vials of red food coloring and product instruction sheet. - Filter base is made from a super durable glass-filled polymer which is BPA free and NSF/FDA food contact compliant.
- Each element measures approximately 9-1/2" x 2-1/2" overall, including stem.
The Phoenix New Millenium Edition water filters have Micron rating of 1, this media formulation includes premium CTC 60 coconut shell carbon which was activated in a controlled environment using high temperatures to develop millions of micropores. - The original Black Berkey Element has an approximate 0.25 micron rating.
NOTE: The Berkey New Millennium Phoenix filters have twice the filtration speed compared to the standard Black Berkey Elements. You have the option of testing the Phoenix filters with the red dye that is included with every set of Phoenix water filters that you purchase.
This process exponentially increases its surface area and absorption capabilities to enable the media to effectively absorb and trap a vast range of waterborne contaminants and impurities. The media mixture is then molded and sintered with precise compression
and heat to fuse the media particles together into a dense, yet super
porous filter for effective contaminant reduction with impressive water flow capabilities.
Comprehensive Filtration – Reduces monochloramine, free chlorine, heavy metals, VOCs, herbicides, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, PFAS (“forever chemicals”), microplastics and more. Click link below for extensive list of contaminants that are reduced or removed.
