Is Samsung NSF certified?
Last reviewed July 2026.
Yes. Samsung filters are listed by NSF, and every model we track carries a certified lead claim under NSF/ANSI 53 — one you can verify in a public listing, not just on the box.
What the listing actually says
| Model | Standards | Lead | PFOA/PFOS | Certified capacity | $ / certified gallon |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DA29-00020B Refrigerator Water Filter (HAF-CIN) DA29-00020B brand ↗ | 42 53 401 | ✓ | ✗ | 300 gal | price pending |
DA29-00020B: NSF-listed to NSF/ANSI 42, 53 and 401.
The lead claim, model by model
DA29-00020B: NSF's NSF/ANSI 53 claim set for the DA29-00020B (HAF-CIN/EXP) lists lead and mercury reduction, among others. Source: NSF listing, Samsung, read 2026-10-02.
What those standard numbers mean
- NSF/ANSI 42 — aesthetic effects (chlorine, taste and odour). Not a health claim.
- NSF/ANSI 53 — health effects. A certified lead or PFOA/PFOS claim is made under 53, but a 53 listing covers only the contaminants its claim set names: it is not automatically a lead claim.
- NSF/ANSI 401 — emerging compounds: pharmaceuticals, BPA, DEET, microplastics. On the listings we read, no 401 claim set includes PFOA or PFOS.
Verify it yourself: every Samsung row above links the certifier's own listing. If a number here disagrees with the listing, the listing wins — tell us and we'll fix it.
