Which contaminants does my Bosch refrigerator water filter remove?
All Bosch refrigerator water filters reduce impurities, chlorine taste and odor in your refrigerator’s water supply according to NSF 42 standards. Bosch UltraClarity® filter 00644845 (models 9000 225 170 and 9000 077 104) and Bosch filter 12004484 (UKF8001) also meet NSF 53 standards.
What are NSF 42 refrigerator water filter standards?
Refrigerator water filters with NSF certification 42 are certified to reduce chlorine taste and odor, iron, chloramines, manganese, hydrogen sulfide and zinc. They also neutralize pH (acidity and alkalinity).
What are NSF 53 refrigerator water filter standards?
Refrigerator water filters with NSF certification 53 are certified to reduce the same impurities included in certification 42: chlorine taste and odor, iron, chloramines, manganese, hydrogen sulfide and zinc. Additionally, water filters with NSF certification 53 reduce lead and other heavy metals, fluoride, nitrate/nitrite and volatile organic chemicals.
