Multipure Independent Distributor

NSF/ANSI 42 and NSF/ANSI 53 - these standards are primarily for products that function in adsorption and filtration covering a wide range of contaminant reductions. Carbon filters are an example of these types of products. NSF/ANSI 42 covers aesthetic reduction claims while NSF/ANSI 53 covers health-related reduction claims
