· Seagull IV X-6 Water Purifiers
General Ecology presents data from testing specifically
selected to demonstrate product effectiveness in removing those contaminants
most frequently encountered in water supplies. Please
note that all General Ecology test results represent performance using actual
contaminants, not substitute surrogates which some companies submit.
This Performance Data Sheet shows some of the removal capabilities of Seagull
IV Water Purifiers. It is recommended that before purchasing a water treatment
unit you have your water supply tested to determine your actual water treatment
needs.
