thanks for the feedback! I totally agree, unfortunately this is one of my first videos and I uploaded before I realized the audio problem. Propur is great!
How often do you change the filters? According to their recommendation, you are supposed to change filters every year as they only last one year or until the water is being filtered too slowly but I have been using them for two years now and I am noticing that the filtering process has not slowed down but sped up. Is that a sign that they are not filtering well anymore and it's time for me to change the filters? Thanks
I've had a ProPure for more than 5 years. It is perfect, simple ,everyone thinks I have the best tasting water they've ever had. The filters are easy to clean, only do it every 6 months and they last for a few years in my house so they are economical even at 140.00 a pair. I love everything about this system.
I ordered a ProOne stainless steel system....should arrive tomorrow. One thing I've noticed about Berkey is that they come w/a plastic spigot...so you have to spend another $35 if you want a stainless steel one. ProOne comes w/a stainless steel one. I also like that ProOne has just 1 filter that takes out everything including fluoride....& has silver in it to help prevent nasties. For me, those are some advantages over Berkey. Even having said that, I"m glad people are buying & using any filtering system that filters out the over 200 contaminants !
@@filledathome9801 We have had the ProOne pitcher for a week...water tastes great...but not liking a few things about pitcher...so ( being just Ron & me), I ordered the traveler size (2.25 gal) which ,hopefully, will be a good size.

Would you consider not having background music? It might help with subscribers and views. Unfortunately, I was not able to view the whole video for this reason., Take care.
The fluoride used in municipal water supplies, is industrial waste from places like the paper industries. Fluoride causes more problems than it solves, only most don't know it, because it happens slowly over time--so by the time thy notice problems from it, the damages are done. You really DO want to filter it out of drinking water, too, because municipal water systems do NOT have reliable equipment dosing it into the water supply...sometimes it's way too little, and sometimes way too much--toxic levels. Same thing re: the dosing machines that put chlorine/bromine into the water. [chlorine is OK for cooler weather, but turns nasty bad in hot conditions, so they usually convert to using bromine during hot summer weather.] Some municipalities use both chlorine AND ammonia--a toxic combination--to make sure water in the pipes does not grow bad germs. ..but that also means people are drinking some of that, which does not entirely go away in it's travels to your house.
Super informative video! I have a berkey, can I used 2 berkey filters as well as 2 pro pur? I don't want my berkey ones to go to waste but want the fluoride filtering....thank you!
Thanks so much! Seems like technically you could use both if you still have some life left in your Berkey filters. It may be hard to test later to know when their done but you could definitely do that! Great idea!
I began to watch, because description says review, but it's only information from web-site.How you can state, that it removes everything if there are no test results? I don't like Berkey, they definitely overads and now we have real review on Berkey with test shows that it barely reduce here and there. But it's a question if Pro one is better. Look for real test reviews, not only shows.
Well yes and no about Berkley NSF certification. It is certified for material compliance. It is also certified to remove chlorine, certification by WQA to NSF standards.
The Purpro, now ProOne, is certified the same as the Berkley, material compliance only. They make a lot of claims for contaminant removal on their website, but I haven’t reviewed how they preformed the tests. To be NSF certified to Standard 42 for contaminant removal, the test process is to run water with the spiked contaminant through the filter at 100% of the filters rated capacity and verify the removal rate at the end meets the EPA standards. For NSF 53, EPA Health Effects, contaminants the requirement is 200% of the filter rated capacity. Tests results for the Berkley show contaminant removal meet the EPA requirements, but the filter is rated for 3000 gallon and the tests used spiked water from as high as 50 gallons to as little as 0.5 liters. Therefore their reduction claims are only valid for that quantity of water. NSF certification for the ProOne. info.nsf.org/Certified/DWTU/Listings.asp?Company=C0250583&Standard=042
@@TYT695 I took a brief look at the ProOne test results, so of them were done to 100% of rated filter capacity. If you are looking for filters that are NSF certified to remove contaminants you can find them on the NSF website. RO systems are better than these, but are expensive and waste water. The Brita pitcher is certified by NSF to remove contaminants, and the Brita faucet filter is better. The best and most extensively tested by the NSF is type eSpring. Initial purchase is $1,042.00 but replacements filters are $208 for 1320 gallons, $0.16 per gallon. But I’m biased because I market it, but I spent months doing comparisons of contaminant removal claims and actual test results.
u put 1 set of filters on the bottom and 1 set on top so all the water is filtered thru BOTH types of filters. Otherwise some water is filtered thru ceramic and some water thru the charcoal filters only.
Update: I got one (the big) and it's AMAZING! They are worth the wait and every penny! My family has been drinking more water as well and you can definitely taste the difference from a regular faucet filter to this. Get yourself one, you won't regret it! Also the company is awesome, I ordered the wrong size and they were happy to refund me after I sent it back for the correct size.

This right here was the review video that answered so many of my questions! Thank you for the helpful info! I would gladly use your link as a way to say thanks. However, could you consider adding an Amazon affiliate link for those like myself who will probably end up buying it from there but would love to use your link if there was one as a way to show appreciation for this awesome review! Maybe I can use your link for a future purchase as a way of saying thanks! God bless! :)
Thank you so much, I really appreciate you using my link and I’m glad I was able to help! Unfortunately Amazon won’t let me have an affiliate yet until I have more subscribers, so sorry!
Stop that extremely annoying music. It’s really disturbing. I was very interested in what you are saying, but it is extremely hard to hear. Very poor choice.
Thank you for this video and especially the last part. I know my wife and I would LOVE to see more of your content if you pick it back up. Thank you and be safe!
You need to turn down the music in your videos. Great content and thanks for the video. I’ve had a pro pur for about 5 years. Love it

That’s wonderful!
Music is too loud compared to the voice, but otherwise GREAT VIDEO. :)
Have you ever tested the water after filtering? The Proone sounds like a good alternative to a Berkey.
I had the ProPur filter pitcher, and the huge difference in the water quality made me buy the ProOne Big and I love it!
That’s so great! Glad you got it and are enjoying!
Is there a chance that you could remove the music background? It really interferes with your message.
No need to remove the music simply reduce the volume.

I noticed the bottom of the top unit appeared to have rust-is that correct or was it the lighting?
No rust, it must have been the lighting😃
Where you can Bay the white ceramics filters G2.09
Thank you so much! Here is my link, you can click on replacement filters to purchase the ceramic G2.O9. prooneusa.com/?ref=6
Thanks you. But day have no more. Thank you for everything.
They are in stock and actually on sale right now, check here😀prooneusa.com/product/proone-g2-0-9/
wanted to listen to this but there is an annoying music that makes it too hard to listen so turned it off before you really even got started
I gave you a thumbs-up but you need to lower the background music please.
Thank you! Unfortunately after I uploaded the video I can no longer adjust the volume, I’m really bummed, trying to get better at these things😀
I couldn't hear if you had to prime the filters before using them, maybe you can do an update on the system. The music 🙉
I wonder if one could place a 1 oz .9999 silver coin in the bottom container to enhance the water with silver?
I needed to put on the captions in for this. Music levels are too high. Thank you for all the great info though!!!
Thanks for the captions idea! Otherwise impossible to hear her
Does this system remove minerals?
Yes it can strip minerals as well, many people add back in trace minerals after filtering, great question!
The music just ruins the video....
Your video would be much more helpful if you would turn down or turn off the background music. It is almost impossible to hear you over the music.
What about atrazine, does it filter out atrazine?
Yes, to 99.9% www.purefiltersdirect.com/content/Lab%20Report%2015-134.pdf
Is this the same as pro one water filter?
Great video. Please lose the music. Thank you.
Too soft. Just realized music too loud after someone mentioned it. Was trying to hear. Sounds like your far away. Ok music stopped. I can hear now.
she keeps saying PROPUR but her link is for PROONE.....
Your music is overwhelming while you were talking. I couldn't hear what you were saying.
Thanks for the video, I almost bought a Berky but I bought Pro One.
That’s wonderful!
tried to watch, but could barely hear you thru music
Is it no longer called propur but instead ProOne?
Yes it is now ProOne, they have recently rebranded😀

@@filledathome9801 Thanks for responding! Do you know if the GR09 filters will fit in the big size berkey?
The G2.09 will only fit with the 3 gallon and up units so for the Big Berkey you would need the G2.07 instead because it’s a 2.25-2.5 gallon unit.😀
@@filledathome9801 Thank you for letting me know!!!! :)
The music is distracting.
Cannot hear you ....music is too loud
How many filters do you have to finish filling in an hour?
I only use two at a time and it takes less than 1 hour🤗

@@LSuschena so are you saying they are no better than making your own with sand, charcoal, and rocks? The cost of the filters are ridiculous.
I just bought one. I have the 7" filter and it takes only one hour for the water in the top to drain to the bottom. Does that sound too fast?
That sounds about right! That’s how long mine takes as well, keep in mind it depends on how many contaminates are in the water to begin with😃
It depends on your tap water quality but mine take less than 1 hour to filter when new, also my tap doesn’t have flouride.
This is my first time seeing a product like this pretty awesome
Very poor sound quality for the first 4 minutes of this video 😐
Too much backroom noise and music which didn't let me hear you.
