Base Grille Water Filtration System
Tested and certified by NSF International against ANSI/NSF Standard 42
for the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, Particulate Class I1"; and
against ANSI/NSF Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury,
Benzene, Toxaphene, p-d ch orobenzene, and Carbofuran.
This system has been tested according to ANSl/NSF 42/53 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 ANSI/NSF 42/53.
