PERFORMANCE DATA SHEETS
Water Filtration System, models
Replacement Filter A (model WHAB-6009)
Replacement Filter B (model WHAB-6010)
Replacement Filter C (model WHAB-6011)
The system conforms to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for the specific performance claims as verified and substantiated by test data. The system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for reduction of 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 and 53.
