***Contaminants or other substances which can be removed by the Ultra Fresh® systems are not necessarily in your water. Operational maintenance and replacement requirements every 7 years or one million gallons (whichever comes first) are essential for the product to perform as advertised. Actual savings achieved are dependent on your particular spending habits and usage levels.
