Interior Water Filtration System

Model UKF8001AXX-200 Capacity 200 Gallons (757 Liters)

This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 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 Standards 42 and 53.

Test Parameters: pH = 7.5 ± 0.5 unless otherwise noted. Flow = 0.55 gpm (2.08 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). Temp. = 68°F ±
5°F (20°C ± 3°C).

It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter
replacement requirements be carried out for the product to
perform as advertised.

The disposable water filter should be replaced at least every
6 months.

The filter monitor system measures the amount of water that
passes through the filter and alerts you to replace the filter.
When 90% of the filter’s rated life is used, the yellow (Order)
light comes on. When 100% of the filter’s rated life is used,
the red (Replace) light comes on, and it is recommended that
you replace the filter. For models without filter status lights,
replace the filter every 6 months. Use replacement filter
model UKF8001. 2011 suggested retail price of
$44.99 U.S.A./$49.95 Canada. Prices are subject to change
without notice.

The product is for cold water use only.

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 waters that may contain filterable cysts.
