* The term “bacteriostatic” indicates that the system
limits the passage or growth of bacteria that may
already exist in the incoming water. It does not mean
that water leaving the system is safer to drink than
water entering the system.
It is essential that the manufacture’s recommended installation, maintenance and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the
product to perform as advertised. See installation Manual for details.
Note: While the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary.
