Base Grille Water Filtration System
Model WF-NLC120V Capacity 120 Gallons (454 Liters)
System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Benzene,
This system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42/53 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 ANSI/NSF 42/53.
