pesticide) by more than 90%, and significantly reduces MTBE
- NSF Certified - Tested and certified effective by NSF
International, the recognized authority on water treatment product

Q's and A's
Q: If the countertop system is rated at 10,000 gallons, how do I know
when the filter should be replaced? What criteria was used to determine these capacities?
Is a flow meter available?
A: The
countertop is certified for 5,000 gallons thru NSF. The NSF testing
protocol requires units making health claims (standard 53) to
successfully perform for 200% of their rated capacity. In other words we
tested to 10,000 gallons to get a 5,000 gallon claim. We could offer a
totalizing flow meter, however they are very expensive consequently we
simply recommend that the filter be changed every 3 to 5 years.
Q: Does the countertop system filter mercury?
A:
The Countertop System WES-10 is effective at reducing levels of
mercury and cadmium as well as lead. This is due to their similarity
with regards to the periodic table

The last century has shown a great increase in number of toxic
chemicals in our water supply.
Water contamination is now thought
to be a major cause of degenerative diseases.
Results of recent studies are startling:
- Recent Ralph Nader report revealed that over 2100
cancer causing chemicals have been found in US drinking water. The
US EPA also reports that yearly, lead in water causes learning
disabilities in 560,000 American children, and high blood pressure
in 680,000 men.
- The National Cancer Institute reports that chlorinated water
may as much as double the risks of certain cancers.
- Steam inhaled while showering can contain up to 50 times more
the concentration of chlorine and other chemicals, potentially leading
to asthma and bronchitis.
