Worth knowing

IAPMO lists the VSF-5000 at 2.0 and 1.75 gallons a minute (-E2 and -E175) with the FS-2 filter, certified for 3,000 gallons. Speakman gives no rating of its own and sells no FS-2 on its store, so the five-year cost leaves the filters out and is incomplete. Price recorded is the $149 polished chrome, the only finish Speakman sells.
