Performance Data Sheet
Model: GE AFPWF
Use Replacement Cartridge AFPWF.
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 Standard 42. System tested and certified by NSF International against
NSF/ANSI Standard 42 and CSA B483.1 for the reduction of substances listed below.
It is essential that the manufacturer’s recommended installation, maintenance and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the product to perform as advertised.
See Installation Manual for Warranty information.

To reduce the risk associated with ingestion of contaminants:
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before and after the system.
NOTICE
To reduce the risk of property damage due to water leakage:
• Read and follow use instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (827 kPa). If your water pressure
exceeds 80 psi, you must install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer
conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water
temperature of this filter system is 100º F (38º C).
• Protect filter from freezing. Drain filter when temperatures drop
below 33ºF (0.6ºC).
•
The disposable filter cartridge must be replaced every 6 months at the
rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
Capacity 170 Gallons (643.5 Liters). Contaminant Reduction Determined by NSF testing.
