Water Purifiers- Product Data Sheet
Seagull IV X-1 Water Purifiers · Seagull
IV X-2 Water Purifiers
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.
