PERFORMANCE dATA
Important Notice: Read performance data and compare the
capabilities of this system with your actual water treatment
requirements. It is recommended that the supply water be tested,
before installing a water treatment system, to determine your
water treatment needs.
This system is designed to be used with one 1500R and one
1750R filter cartridge. These cartridges when used together in
this system have the performance claims listed below.
uS2000 System
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI 42 and 53
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 water exiting the system, as specified in
NSF/ANSI 42 and 53.

WARNING
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction
may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable
cysts.
NOTE: Filter must be maintained according to manufacturer's
recommendations, including replacement of filter cartridges.
The contaminants or other substances reduced by this water
treatment device are not necessarily in your water.
