Flow Rate (GPM)
Intermittent flow rate does not represent the maximum service flow rate used for determining the softeners
rated capacity and efficiency. Continuous operation at flow rates greater than the service flow rate may affect
capacity and efficiency performance.

These systems conform to NSF/ANSI 44 for the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated
by test data.
The efficiency rating is only valid at the minimum stated salt dosage. These softeners were efficiency rated
according to NSF/ANSI Standard 44.
