California
Department of Health Services Certificate
The California Department of Health
Services certifies all residential water treatment devices sold in the state
that make health claims. Water filter systems that claim to reduce, filter or
treat any chemical or compound that the state or federal government has
determined presents a health concern in drinking water must be certified to be
sold in California. Examples of health
benefit claims include a device's ability to reduce or filter lead and other
heavy metals, bacteria, cysts, nitrates, organic chemicals and pesticides.
Most testing for certification is
done according to protocols that are part of the NSF International Standards.
The testing establishes that the water treatment device provides sufficient
reduction of contaminants to warrant certification. Testing also determines that
the materials used to construct the system will not contribute harmful
contaminants to the treated water. The manufacturer must comply with product
labeling and consumer information requirements before a device can be certified.
