Thi
s system has been tested and certifi ed in fi lter model GE MSWF according to NSF/ANSI Standards 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
le
aving the system, as specifi ed in NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53.* (Safety factors built in for unmetered usage.)
It is essential that the manufacturer's recommended installation, maintenance and
