•
•
expected to drop below 33°F (1°C). Do not install systems in areas where
ambient temperatures may go above 100ºF or below 40°F. Do not install
on a hot water supply.
Special Notices
• Installation instructions are included with the product when shipped.
• This drinking water system must be maintained according to manufacturer’s
instructions, including replacement of filter cartridges.
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for
cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
Standard No. 42: Aesthetic Effects
• Chemical
– Chlorine Taste and Odor
Tested and Certified by NSF International against ANSI/NSF Standards 42 and 53 in model GE MWF for the reduction of:
• Mechanical Filtration
– Particulate Reduction, Class I
Standard No. 53: Health Effects
• Chemical Reduction
–
Atrazine Reduction
– Endrin Reduction
– Benzene and Carbofuran Reduction
–
1,4 Dichlorobenzene and
2,4-D Reduction
– Lead and Lindane Reduction
– Mercury and Toxaphene Reduction
• Mechanical Filtration
–
Cyst and Asbestos Reduction
• The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water
treatment system are not necessarily in your water.
• Check for compliance with the applicable state and local laws and regulations.
• Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions,
actual performance may vary. Systems must be installed and operated in
accordance with manufacturer’s recommended procedures and guidelines.
• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes. Do not
install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi. If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi
(552 kPa), you should install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer
conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
•
controlling pressure due to thermal expansion must be installed.
