- What does the certification actually cover?
- It is WQA-certified to NSF/ANSI 42 for taste and odor, NSF/ANSI/CAN 401 for emerging contaminants such as PFAS, and NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 for lead-free materials. BOROUX says the system removes 80+ contaminants.
- How often do the filters need changing?
- Each pair of Foundation Filters lasts up to 12 months. Fitting four filters extends the interval to about 24 months.
- Does it need power or plumbing?
- No. It runs on gravity alone, so it works during a power outage and needs no under-sink connection.
- What is in the box?
- The 3-gallon stainless steel system, a solid wooden stand, an automatic filter primer, two Foundation Filters, plus the lid, upper and lower chambers, base ring and two hole plugs.
- How does it compare with a pitcher filter?
- It holds 3 gallons, filters through two Foundation Filters and carries NSF 42, 401 and 372 certification. A pitcher is smaller and cheaper to start but changes filters more often and removes fewer contaminants.
- Who is it not for?
- Large households that want fast, unlimited flow at the tap. Gravity output is steady but slower than a plumbed system, and 3 gallons is a modest reserve.
