Over 99% of lead, 91% of mercury, over 99% of cysts, 96-98% of 87-92% of herbicides,insecticides, over 98% chlorine and over 98% of particles of rust, dirt, sand and sediment (5 to 15 microns in size). It is also reported to improve the clarity of the water by over 99%! The WF2CB does not remove beneficial Fluoride.
Overall, it provides better tasting and smelling water with improved clarity.

How long should my Westinghouse Fridge Water Filter last?
Refrigerator manufacturers strongly recommend that fridge water filters be replaced at least every 6 months or when the "change filter" light comes on. However, if you notice the clarity or taste of your water changing, that's the best indication that it's time for a change! A routine 6 month change-out cycle ensures that your water stays fresh and your refrigerator's ice & water mechanisms are protected from corrosion.
