PERFORMANCE DATA SHEETS
® NSF is a registered trademark of NSF International.
Water Filtration System, models WHAF-0335AB, WHAF-0435AC
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.
NOTES:
Testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions. System performance may vary according
to local water conditions.
Contaminants listed in this Data Sheet are not necessarily in your water.
We recommend your water be tested to determine treatment requirements.
