1 - Efficiency Rating means the percentage of the influent water to the system that is available to the user as
reverse osmosis treated water under operating conditions that approximate typical daily usage.
2 - Recovery Rating means the percentage of the influent water to the membrane portion of the system that
is available to the user as reverse osmosis treated water when the system is operated without a storage tank
or if the storage tank is bypassed.

The Kinetico Drinking Water System Plus Deluxe
Kinetico Drinking Water System Plus Deluxe VX and GX models are tested and certified
by NSF International and WQA against the requirements of NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for
the reduction of aesthetic chlorine, taste and odor and Standard 58 for the reduction of
pentavalent arsenic, barium, raduim 226/228, cadmium, copper, cysts (including oocysts of
cryptosporidium and cysts of giardia and entamoeba), fluoride, hexavalent chromium, lead,
nitrate/nitrite (with test kit, part no. 7329), selenium,TDS (commonly comprised of calci-
um, magnesium, sodium, iron, manganese, bicarbonate, sulfate and carbonate), trivalent
chromium and turbidity.VX models are tested and certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for
VOC, lead and MTBE reduction. (See performance data sheet for individual contaminants
and reduction performance.) 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.
Plus Deluxe models are acceptable for treatment of influent concentrations of no more than 27 mg/L
nitrate and 3 mg/L nitrite in combination measured as N and are certified for nitrate/nitrite reduction
only for water supplies with a pressure of 280 KPa (40 psi) or greater.
NSF International and WQA certify our product performance, and review our manufacturing facility
and procedures to assure product consistency and integrity.They also assure that our literature accurate-
ly reflects our product capabilities.
The system and installation must comply with state/provincial and local laws and regulations.
