This filter improves the taste and odor and reduces many chemical contaminants in drinking water.
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI 42 and 53 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 and 53. The testing
was performed using spiked tap water at a flow rate of 0.5 GPM (1.9 L/min.), pH of 7.5 ±0.5, pressure of 60 PSIG,
and temperature of 68 ±5°F.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Read this performance data and compare the capabilities of this unit with your actual water
treatment needs. It is recommended that, before purchasing a water treatment unit, you have your water supply
tested to determine your actual water treatment needs. This filter system is designed to be used for the reduction of
the performance claims listed below. Do not use where water is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality, with-
out adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfec-
ted water that may contain filterable cysts. While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual
performance of the system may vary based on local water conditions. Some or all of the contaminants reduced by
this unit may not be in your water supply. See elsewhere in this manual for instructions on filter cartridge
replacement, system installation, operating procedures, and warranty. The maintenance instructions must
be followed for the product to perform as indicated below.
NOTE: See labels on the water treatment system for additional information.
