PERFORMANCE DATA SHEET

Water Filtration System

Model P5WB2L/P4RFWB Capacity 200 Gallons (757 Liters)

System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI

Standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, and Particulate

Class I*; and against NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for the reduction of Live

Cysts, Asbestos, Lead, Lindane, Toxaphene, Atrazine, and 2,4 - D.

This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53 for the 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 leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53.

Substance Reduction	NSF Reduction	Average	Influent Challenge	Maximum	Minimum %	Average %
Aesthetic Effects	Requirements	Influent	Concentration	Effluent	Reduction	Reduction
Chlorine Taste/Odor	50% reduction	2.0 mg/L	2.0 mg/L ± 10%	0.20 mg/L	97	97.2
Particulate Class I*	85% reduction	7,300,000 #/mL	At least 10,000 particles/mL	75,000 #/mL**	99	99.4

2,4 - D	0.07 mg/L	0.220 mg/L	0.210 mg/L ± 10%	0.028 mg/L	87.5	96.1

Test Parameters: pH = 7.5 ± 0.5 unless otherwise noted. Flow = 0.5 gpm (1.9 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). Temp. = 68°F to 71.6°F (20°C to 22°C). Rated service capacity = 200 gallons (757 liters).

■It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the product to perform as advertised.

■Use replacement filter P4RFWB, part #W10291030.

2011 suggested retail price of $49.99 U.S.A./$59.99 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice.

Style 1 – When the water filter status display changes from “GOOD” to “ORDER,” order a new filter. When the filter indicator reads “REPLACE,” it is recommended that you replace the filter.

Style 2 – When the filter indicator changes from green to yellow, order a new filter. When the indicator changes from yellow to red, it is recommended that you replace the filter.

Style 3 – When the filter indicator reads 10%, order a new filter. When the indicator reads 0%, it is recommended that you replace the filter.

Style 4 – Press FILTER to check the status of your water filter. If the filter indicator light is yellow, order a new filter. If the filter indicator light is red, it is recommended that you replace the filter.

■After changing the water filter, flush the water system. See “Water and Ice Dispensers.”

■These contaminants are not necessarily in your water supply. While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary.

■The product is for cold water use only.

■The water system must be installed in compliance with state and local laws and regulations.

■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 waters that may contain filterable cysts.
