System tested and certified by NSF International
against NSF/ANSI Std 42 for the reduction of Chlorine
Taste and Odor, Particulate Class I and against
NSF/ANSI 53 for the reduction of Cysts, Turbidity,
Asbestos, Mercury, Lead, Benzene, p-Diclorobenzene,
Carbofuran
Timely replacement of filter cartridge is essential for performance
satisfaction from this filtration system. Please refer to the appli-
cable section of your Use and Care Guide for general operation,
maintenance requirements and troubleshooting.
This system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53
for reduction of the substances listed above. 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
and 53.
