Claims of capacity are not applicable to contaminants reduced by mechanical filtration because of broad variations in the quality and quantity of physical matter in your drinking water. Your Multi-Pure filter will clog, protecting you from these contaminants, and your flow rate diminishes. For contaminants reduced by adsorption, filter life/capacity is 750 gallons.
