NSF and the Water Quality Association set the standards in the water
purification industry. In order to obtain certification from NSF, the WQA,
or a state government for a reverse osmosis system, one must submit the assembled system to the organization or agency and pay a fee of several thousand dollars. The agency will then issue a statement which says that the system is certified. In order to keep our prices low, we have not obtained certification for our system as a whole. However, all of the components of our system are certified. If you have any problem with our system, contact us to arrange to have the system checked. Here are the web sites of most of the manufacturers of our components:

NSF performance claims for filters and membranes require testing in a
specified housing or system, and the certified claims are only valid for the filter or membrane when operated in the specific housing or system. However, the performance claims made by the manufacturers of the components in our system have been tested by various independant certified labs in accordance with ANSI/NSF Standards 42 and 53. In addition, numerous Original Equipment Manufacturers have also obtained NSF certified performance claims incorporating these components in their systems.
