Welcome to the NSF E-ReMarks. This publication keeps you informed of the latest NSF International news for the point-of-use and point-of-entry markets. Be sure to look for the next issue, coming soon!

Household water treatment (HWT) systems play an important role in protecting public health where existing water sources are untreated or risk contamination during distribution and storage.

WaterMark certification is required for products to be legally installed in the water supply system in Australia and New Zealand. The WaterMark logo can only be issued by an JAS-ANZ accredited certification body such as NSF International.
The WaterMark logo allows products to be easily identified and recognized by plumbers, regulators and consumers as compliant with the mandatory Australian standards and plumbing requirements.

Consumer Inquiries
A concerned insurance agent recently contacted NSF requesting the certification status of a non-OEM refrigerator filter replacement cartridge. The agent was calling on behalf of a client, who had failed to install the proper cartridge; this caused the refrigerator to leak and resulted in thousands of dollars worth of damage.
The NSF Consumer Affairs office works diligently to educate individuals on the importance of using proper OEM replacement cartridges along with the recommended service cycle in which cartridges must be replaced. View an NSF consumer fact sheet on water filtration systems.
For additional information, contact NSF Consumer Affairs representative, Cheryl Luptowski, luptowski@nsf.org
