Performance Data Sheet

for CLEAR2O Models CWS100A and CWS100B

with Replacement Cartridge CWF100 Chemical, Mechanical Reduction Filter

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 42 and 53.

System tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, Particulate Nominal Class I and against NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Asbestos, Cadmium, MTBE, Toxaphene, VOC, Cyst, Turbidity.

Capacity: 40 gallons (151 liters) depending on local water conditions
