Does this system really get all of the flouride out of the water?

If you buy the extra fluoride filter - at extra cost. Get on the Berkey web site and see the details. http://www.bigberkeywaterfilters.com

I havent tested it but it definitely gets all of the chloride out of the municiple water (they use it to clean the pipes). I dont taste anything in our water. You can run red food dye through the system to see if your seals are tight. If so the water is clear. (I use the black and white filters.)

We have not had it tested but our water is very good and there is a significant difference with the fluoride filters and without. I would suggest the extra price is well worth the cost.

no. depending on your water softener... determines how much salt it uses. mine is gear driven by water... so every 300 gallons mine regenerates. water softeners don't remove iron... like this air injection sys does. I have noticed a big difference in my water since I bought this system... I would recommend that you get your water tested.... to see if you need an iron removal system

Yes. All reverse osmosis systems filter out fluoride. I have not had it tested but there are other reviewers who have had it tested with amazing results. We are very happy with this product. I installed it myself in less than three hours. Good Luck!

Not at all! The system is super efficient and the quality of the water is amazing!

Yes. It is a bit overkill, but I have found it to be the most effective way because of the directional pump. Just be aware that it removes water very quickly and to not remove too much.

We do not know how much fluoride has been added to your water system; there would be a sliding scale of effectiveness as the carbon ages, etc. However, we know the water passes slowly through the AquaRain (which is positive since you want the contact time to be as long as possible.) We have found documents that say carbon will reduce fluoride enough (up to 80%)

Pretty sure the only way to remove fluoride is through reverse osmosis. The Seychelle filters claim to this...but so far have failed independent testing.

Yes it picks up everything and I never have a problem getting someone to clean the pool. There are 2 filters a netted one and a micro fiber I use both together and it removes big things and everything else. I was without filtration for about 10 days waiting for it to be fixed and without this I would have been over run with a mess. I love it.

No, the Multipure system does not address fluoride. No carbon block filter will remove fluoride, so we would recommend reverse osmosis.

3M Lab Results shows 0.36 ppm of FLUORIDE remaining in the water filtered through PF-2 "fluoride" filters.Being that fluoride is a HIGHLY toxin poison ANY fluoride is too much for me to ingest, so no they are NOT effective."The fluoride concentration result for the sample you submitted is listed above. This result was obtained using state-of-the-art equipment for accuracy. The method of testing is the fluoride ion selective electrode." (3M)

To my knowledge, it doesn't. I've yet to find any shower filter that removes fluoride from the shower. A few may claim to but I've sent most of them off for testing and they all fail the fluoride tests.

Yes - this system filters out almost everything out of the source water..my water is as good as fresh spring water....

I'm not sure, but when I do boil my water thru it is much cleaner. Then I can see all the fluoride left behind. Even if it does not remove it completely it is much better than before. The Megahome does a pretty good job. I would recommend it.

Yes it does get everything out of the water. The things that come out are left on the inside of the pot. I have lime in my water and it leaves a mess of slime in the bottom. I use CLR to clean the pot. The water seems to be clean, because it does not build up in my coffee pot like it did.

It removes everything, put food coloring in the water and it comes out clear.i tried this..I bought it specifically to remove flouride..taste is so clean..no more hauling around cases of bottled --use for cooking too..could not be easier and good for the environment

If you purchase the flouride removal filters for it.I have found our Berkey better for that though.
