Wow long time didn't come to this thread already, thanks @NightFelix for moving and starting another thead
I think you are misleading. NSF is not just for "USA". There is a more fundamental difference, LGA is not water expert nor safety standard, it is just government body, in wellfare, tourism, transport....etc etc...
Take a view on their website and what they do, everyone should know that they are not fit to certify a water filter.
Your statement of making the analogy that CPA vs ACCA = LGA vs NSF is very
misleading, saying that as long as it is certified by LGA, it is as good as being certified by NSF. But what experty does LGA has to certify? Where is the test report? What facilities they have to perform the
certification?
Diamond and Nesh often include statement that their units are certified by exhibition organizations, misleading people that their products are okay, again what kind of experty does the exhibition organization have to do the certification? This had mislead so many people to buy into their filters
Another statement made by you that you said some part of Aquaphor is certified by NSF, not the whole unit.....some part? which part? why not found on their website?
I really urge others to do proper study, and LGA is no where close to fit to give "certification" out....pls be a conscience consumer, demand for proof, demand for test report.
The fundamental don't change >>>
Where is the test report? show me!Sorry you really sounds like another diamond and nesh salesman.....

Hi fir3man,
First of all, d_goh already said this before regarding NSF is not just for USA and i already replied saying that it is true NSF does not only apply for USA but Aquaphor Crystal ECO is mainly targeted for European markets and Europeans do recognize LGA while Aquaphor MORION is mainly targeted for USA market, hence they apply for NSF.
I never mentioned that LGA is as good or better than NSF, is just that when you have LGA which is an European Standards, it shows that the AQUAPHOR water is safe to consume. I never said that CPA is better than ACCA or ACCA is better but when you have either one of these cert it shows that you have certain skills or abilities to handle the job of an accountant.
Most information on Aquaphor are in Russian and that is why we cant find them in google but i did email Aquaphor to get the information and here is one of the certification. I think u went to the wrong LGA website or you got the wrong info. THe link that i was given from Aquaphor is as below
http://www.tuv.com/de/deutschland/gk/produ...lga-tested.html

FYI, in Europe, Aquaphor is Available in the following stores. This shows that Aquaphor is quite an established brand in Europe
