RC-EZ-4 Cartridges

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.
