NSF/ANSI 61 testing covers all products with drinking water contact from source to tap, and determines what contaminants may migrate or leach from a product into drinking water. It also confirms products are below the maximum levels allowed to be considered safe. NSF/ANSI Standard 372 tests products for lead content to ensure that they comply with lead content requirements for “lead free” plumbing as defined by California, Vermont, Maryland, and Louisiana state laws and the U.S. Safe Drinking Act in effect as of January 4, 2014.11
