Certification Reality: What's Actually Tested
This table shows the NSF/IAPMO/WQA-listed certifications for each Multipure SKU we tracked, alongside the contaminants the brand markets but which do not appear on the third-party listing. Green chips are third-party verified; amber chips are marketing claims without a corresponding listing. Every row links to the live certifier database so you can verify the listed claim set yourself.

Aquaperform[3][4][Pb] is the cert-footprint flagship within the Aquaperform family — the [4] suffix specifically denotes the PFOA + PFOS + pentavalent arsenic + microcystin coverage that distinguishes it from the base Aquaperform[Pb] (NSF/ANSI 42 chlorine + chloramine + particulate + taste-and-odor only). Buyers should verify the specific suffix on their unit against NSF's certification database to confirm the certified scope matches their contaminant priorities — three SKUs sharing the Aquaperform base name carry materially different certification profiles.

AQUALUXE[4][Pb] is the broadest single-SKU certification footprint in the Multipure lineup — the [4] suffix encodes the PFAS + pentavalent arsenic + microcystin coverage beyond the standard NSF/ANSI 53 base. The plain AQUALUXE (NSF/ANSI 401 only) and AQUALUXE[Pb] (NSF/ANSI 42 only) variants carry materially narrower certification profiles despite sharing the AQUALUXE base name.

The AQUALUXE base variant carries NSF/ANSI 401 emerging-compounds certification only — buyers needing certified coverage for lead, mercury, asbestos, or chlorine should step up to AQUALUXE[Pb] (NSF/ANSI 42 chlorine + chloramine + particulate + taste-and-odor) or AQUALUXE[4][Pb] (NSF/ANSI 53 broad health-effects scope). The same sister-SKU pattern of divergent certification fires across the AQUALUXE family in three distinct tiers.

Aquaversa[3][Pb] is the mid-tier health-effects variant within the Aquaversa family — buyers needing PFOA/PFOS or pentavalent arsenic coverage should step up to Aquaperform[3][4][Pb], which adds those claims. The plain Aquaversa (NSF/ANSI 401 only) and Aquaversa[Pb] (NSF/ANSI 42 only) variants carry materially narrower certification profiles.
