Base Grille Water Filtration System
Model WF-NLC120V Capacity 120 Gallons (454 Liters)
System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI
Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Benzene,
p-dichlorobenzene, Cysts, Turbidity, Asbestos, Endrin,
O-DicNorobenzene, Toxaphene, Ethyl Benzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene
and against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine Taste
and Odor and Particulate Class I.
This system has been tested according to ANSI/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 ANSl/NSF 42/53.
