Base Grille Water Filtration System
Model WF-NLC120V Capacity 120 Gallons (454 Liters)
This system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42/53 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 ANSI/NSF 42/53.
Test Parameters: pH = 7.5 ± 0.5 unless otherwise noted. Flow = 0.5 gpm (1.9 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). Temp. = 63°F
(17.2°C).
■ It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter
replacement requirements be carried out for the product to
perform as advertised.
■ Model WF-NLC120V: Change the water filter every
6 months. Use replacement cartridge NLC120V, part
#4396701. 2007 suggested retail price of $34.99 U.S.A./
$45.99 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.
■ Refer to the front cover or “Accessories” section for the
Manufacturer’s name, address and telephone number.
■ Refer to the “Warranty” section for the Manufacturer’s limited
warranty.
