Base Grille Water Filtration System

Tested and certified by NSF International against ANSI/NSF Standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, Particulate Class II*; and against ANSI/NSF Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Benzene, Toxaphene, p-dichlorobenzene, and Carbofuran.

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.

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

Model WF-NL240V:Change cartridge at least every 6 months. Use replacement cartridge NL240V, part #4396509. 2005 suggested retail price of $35.99 U.S.A./$59.95 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice.

Model WF-L400V:The filter monitor system measures the amount of water that passes through the filter and alerts you to replace the filter. When 90% of the filter’s rated life is used, the filter indicator light changes from green to yellow. When 100% of the filter’s rated life is used, the filter indicator light changes from yellow to red, and it is recommended that you replace the filter. Use replacement cartridge L400V, part #4396509. 2005 suggested retail price of $35.99 U.S.A./$59.95 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice.

The product is for cold water use only.

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
