Note: NSF has tested & certified over 4000 different filters. It's
important to understand we have 400 plus manufacturers of water filters
alone world wide. Having said this "why" would you purchase a water
filter that is NOT tested & certified by NSF. It all comes down to
this: Talk is cheap and facts are hard to find in the drinking water
filtration industry! NSF is were you will get the facts.

Ultimately it comes down to this: What does the filter do & how much
does it cost?

NSF Data performance sheets is were to find "what it does".
Price: For a $1.00 a week you can have pure healthy drinking water. If
you are spending "more" it's costing you too much.

Spoken like a true salesman.... The truth is that salesmen using the
certification of their product are marketing. They don't tell you that
NSF sells the certification service, or that the vast majority of
manufacturers of the actual product won't pay the high price for
certification; company using the product pays for the certification.
The manufacturer has all kinds of government standards the product must
meet, most are NSF standards like NSF 61, so ANY CERTIFICATION IS
MARKETING FLUFF done by sales people selling that particular product.
