Big Berkey® Housing + BOROUX Foundation™ Filters
Real-world contaminant reduction backed by independent lab testing — up to 99.97% reduction across heavy metals, PFAS, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and more. Your family’s health, every pour.
WQA Certified 80+ Contaminants Reduced Made in the USA HSA/FSA Eligible 60-Day Free Returns
What Clean Water Does for Your Health
Most tap water contains contaminants at levels you can’t taste or smell. The BOROUX Foundation™ filters — paired with the proven Big Berkey® stainless housing — are independently tested to dramatically reduce the compounds most associated with long-term health concerns.
-
✓
PFAS (“Forever Chemicals”) Reduced — up to 99.6%
PFOA, PFOS, and related compounds are linked to thyroid disruption, immune effects, and reproductive health. This filter significantly reduces them from your drinking water.
-
✓
Heavy Metals Reduced — up to 99.36%
Lead, mercury, cadmium, chromium, and uranium are reduced well below typical tap levels. Particularly important for children and pregnant women, for whom even trace exposure affects brain and kidney development.
-
✓
Disinfection Byproducts (DBPs) Reduced — up to 99.7%
Chlorine, chloramine, THMs, and haloacetonitriles — byproducts of municipal water treatment — are significantly reduced. Better taste and reduced long-term exposure.
-
✓
Pharmaceuticals Reduced — up to 99.5%
Trace prescription drugs, OTC medications, and personal care compounds enter tap water through wastewater systems. Ongoing low-level exposure can disrupt hormones and antibiotic resistance.
-
✓
Pesticides & Herbicides Reduced — up to 99.95%
Atrazine, glyphosate, DEET, lindane, and similar compounds that run off into watersheds are dramatically reduced. Linked to hormone balance disruption at chronic low levels.
-
✓
Industrial Toxins & VOCs Reduced — up to 99.6%
Benzene, BPA, TCE, PFAS, and related industrial chemicals — associated with liver, kidney, and nervous system effects — are substantially reduced.
-
✓
Microplastics Reduced — 98.9%
WQA Certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 401. Particles 0.5–1.0 microns are captured — the size range that can carry chemical loads into the body.
Note on Fluoride: Foundation™ filters do not reduce fluoride. For fluoride reduction, add the BOROUX Proactive™ Fluoride Filters — alumina-free, designed to pair directly with Foundation™ filters in the same housing.

NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 Lead-Free Design
Certifying body: WQA (Water Quality Association). The Big Berkey® housing itself does not carry independent certifications.
