CONTAMINANT REMOVAL DATA IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Read this Performance Data Sheet and compare the capabilities of this unit with your actual
water treatment needs. It is recommended that, before purchasing a water treatment unit, you
have your water supply tested to determine your actual water treatment needs.
Performance testing conducted by WQA. These systems have been tested according to NSF/
ANSI Standard 53 and 42 for 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 the water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standard
53 and Standard 42.
Testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions; actual performance may vary.
