Special Notices

Installation instructions, parts and service availability, and standard warranty are included with the product when shipped.
This drinking water system must be maintained according to manufacturer's instructions, including replacement of filter
cartridges.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water treatment system are not necessarily in your
water.
Check for compliance with the state and local laws and regulations.
Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary. Systems
must be installed and operated in accordance with manufacturer's recommended procedures and guidelines.
System tested and certified by NSF International against Standard 42 for the reduction of
chlorine, taste and odor, particulate Class I and Standard 53 for the reduction of cyst,
lead, Lindane, Atrazine and turbidity.
