Performance Data Sheet.
SmartWater Filtration System GXSV65R Using Filter FQSVF
■ This System has been tested according to NSF/ANSI 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.
■ Actual performance may vary with local water conditions.
WARNING:
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water 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.
