does it filter out lead?

No it does not. In the fine print, you see it is NSF 42 for water treatment standard. Filters for lead-free water are NSF 53. For more info: http://www.nsf.org/services/by-industry/water-wastewater/residential-water-treatment/residential-drinking-water-treatment-standards/

it will filter out most....unless you have a VERY expensive filter (reverse osmosis),etc... you will not get ALL(100%) of flouride out

it depends on which type of filter you get for the mask. There are different grades of filters that are intended for different purposes, depending on what type of work you are doing. There are filters you can buy that will filter out gases and lead particulate.

No, it is not filter, you will need other product to remove lead, chloride, fluoride... but this item can erase the bad memory about water.

Melissa, I don't really know. I can't say 100% for sure it doesn't, but I believe it is lead-free.

This is only a N95 filter system. It will provide protection against 95% of the dust and particles. It's great for a dusty environment, sanding, light painting, etc. I would check to see how small the particles are for "lead fume" and see what type of respirator protection you would need before risking your health.

I use it to remove fluoride and chlorine. Some contaminants are particles that are too small for this filter to remove.

Here are the recent lab results of the Berkey with the black filters: www.waterfilterlabs.com/Big-Berkey-gravity-water-filter-heavy-metals-lab-results.html. States that it removes 100% of lead. There are also the white ceramic filters which were not tested so I don't know about those removing all the lead. This is a webpage from naturalnews.com put out by Mike Adams the Health Ranger

It doesn't use filters, Nancy. It's for dispensing chlorine. Up to 3" tablets.

It does not really have a filter. It sits underwater in my pond & pumps water/debris to an external above ground filter system. It works great!

Hello Yuki,The Aquasana AQ-5300 filter system effectively removes mercury, lead, and asbestos. The company does not test for other heavy metals. The filters do not remove potassium, calcium, or magnesium. The system's carbon filter also removes many organic compounds, which are listed in their literature. Please see their web site for more details: http://www.aquasana.com/product_detail.php?product_id=51We like our filter, which we purchased to improve the flavor of our morning coffee. This system does not replace a water softener.Sincerely,Robert Ashton, MD, PhD Hello Yuki,The Aquasana AQ-5300 filter system effectively removes mercury, lead, and asbestos.

Yes it does. We are very satisfied with this filter as it does a great job of taking out bad taste and smell. Filters are very inexpensive to replace.

No Jane, it does not. You are probably looking at the wrong filter as there is no place for a handle, or screw for that matter on the filter itself.

No it does not, the inside of the pot is coated. If you use hard water clean the pot out before you notice any build up. I use water filtered through a Britta water filter.

Great question. I wasn't aware that it may contain lead. I'll be getting rid of it if that's true.
