This system conforms to NSF/ANSI 42 and 58 for the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated by
test data.
_@ Feed water supply at 50 psi, 77°F, and 750 TDS. Quality water production, amount of waste water and percent
rejection all vary with changes in pressure, temperature and total dissolved solids.
_Efficiency rating means the percentage of the influent water to the system that is available to the user as reverse
osmosis treated water under operating conditions that approximate typical daily usage.
3Recovery rating means the percentage of the influent water to the membrane portion of the system that is available
to the user as reverse osmosis treated water when the system is operated without a storage tank or when the storage
tank is bypassed.
Non-potable Water Sources: Do not attempt to use this product to make safe drinking water from non-potable water
sources. Do not use the system on microbiologically unsafe water, or water of unknown quality without an adequate
disinfection before or after the system. This system is certified for cyst reduction and may be used on disinfected water
that may contain filterable cysts.
Arsenic Reduction: This system shall only be used for arsenic reduction on chlorinated water supplies containing
detectable residual free chlorine at the system inlet. Water systems using an inline chlorinator should provide a one
minute chlorine contact time before the reverse osmosis system.
Nitrate/Nitrite Test Kit: This system is acceptable for treatment of influent concentrations of no more than 27mg/L
nitrate and 3mg/L nitrite in combination measured as N. It is certified for nitrate/nitrite reduction only for water sup-
plies with a pressure of 280 kPa (40 psig) or greater. This system is supplied with a nitrate/nitrite test kit. Product
water should be monitored periodically according to the instructions provided with the test kit.
TDS Test Kits: TDS test kits are available by calling 1-800-949-8220, or check the water testing section of your local
phone directory.
Installations In The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires installation be
performed by a licensed plumber and do not permit the use of saddle valves. Plumbing code 248-CMR of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts must be followed in these cases.
Product Water Testing: The Reverse Osmosis System contains a replaceable treatment component critical for the effec-
tive reduction of total dissolved solids. Product water should be tested periodically to verify that the system is perform-
ing properly.
Replacement of the reverse osmosis component: This reverse osmosis system contains a replaceable component criti-
cal to the efficiency of the system. Replacement of the reverse osmosis component should be with one of identical
specifications, as defined by the manufacturer, to assure the same efficiency and contaminant performance.
