Page 9: Arsenic Facts
Specifications Compounds certified under NSF/ANSI 401 have been deemed as ‘incidental contaminants / emerging compounds.’ Incidental contaminants are those compounds that have been detected in drinking water supplies at trace levels. While occurring at only trace levels, these compounds can affect the public acceptance/perception of drinking water quality. - Page 10 Using the Reverse Osmosis System How the Reverse Osmosis System Works Reverse Osmosis reduces Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and organic matter from water by diffusing it through a special membrane. The membrane separates minerals and impurities from the water and they are flushed to the drain.
