RO30 with TD
These systems have been tested and certified by NSF International according to NSF/ANSI
42, 5, and 58 for the reduction of the substances listed below. The concentration of the
indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less
than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/
ANSI 42, 5, and 58.

1 While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance ay vary depending on water pressure, temperatures and
other substances, which may be found in your water.
2 This system has been tested for the treatment of water containing pentavalent arsenic (also known as As(V), As(+5) or arsenate) at concentrations
of 0.0 mg/L or less. This system reduces pentavalent arsenic, but may not remove other forms of arsenic. This system is to be used on water sup-
plies containing a detectable free chlorine residual at the system inlet or on water supplies that have been demonstrated to contain only pentavalent
arsenic. Treatment with chloramines (combined chlorine) is not sufficient to ensure complete conversion of trivalent arsenic to pentavalent arsenic.
Please see the Arsenic Facts Sheet for further information.
 Based upon testing methods using Barium as a surrogate. All concentrations in pCi/L pico curie/L.
4 Includes Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolyca and Cryptosporidium.
5 Units are not certified on water supplies with a pressure less than 40 psi (280 kPa). A booster pump is strongly recommended.
