I’ve been reviewing water systems, and have read a lot of complaints lately about the quality of the berkey filters. I’m leading towards a katadyn, but I’m still not sure...

We have a Berkey light and we love it but the spigot does leak a little if its pretty full. We have the floride filters also but won’t be needing them when we are fulltime at the mountain house.

You can go to www.internetprepper.com and he has a water filter kit with spigot for$29.99. You order that kit and then go to Lowes and buy two five gallon food grade buckets and cut out a hole for the spigot and set it up. It works great. We have one as a back up and Mr. GG2 has made one for everyone in the family.

We keep three 55 gallon containers full of fresh water in the garage at all times.

Somebody posted that at the first sign of trouble you should fill up your bathtub and sinks and pots and pans. Probably a good idea.
