Does this filter chlorine and fluoride?

It removes pollutants from regular water. Also it removes chlorine and some fluoride as well (by carbon fiber filter). Please be well informed.

No it does not. Fluoride is a lab test, you can find one here:http://www.filterwater.com/p-380-ntl-watercheck-fluoride-water-test.aspx

chlorine, yes. fluoride, only with the separate elements for such purpose. They're sometimes included when buying online, or just buy separately

The only gravity fed picture water filter that does advertize fluoride removal is Clearly Filtered. That filter removes the heavy metals as good as Zero Water, and in addition also removes >90% of fluoride. I wish Mike Adams of Natural News would test to verify this manufactures claim and I wish Amazon would resell Clearly Filter Water Pictures.

No, it does not remove chlorine. You would need to install a whole house inline charcoal filter.

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

Hi.Yes good and bad minerals are filtered out.If you have fluoride in your water I'm pretty sure that gets filtered out too.

No, it does not. I literally just asked a service expert at Aquasana if it filters out fluoride and his response was, "Sorry, no."

I don't see that anywhere for the black filters that come with it, but there are white filters that say that fluoride is removed.

The filter will not remove salts in the water, so it'd be safe to assume that fluoride also will not be removed. You need a reverse osmosis setup for fluoride removal. I'd like to see an answer from Lifesaver on this just to be sure.

Yes, removes chlorine with just the normal black filters! use it all the time to filter my city tap water to make the perfect "berkey" water! The other two supplemental filters are for fluorine and arsenic.

According to their website, they do filter out mercury, chromium, etc. While there is no testing protocol for pharmaceutical filtration, the activated carbon in the filter system is designed to filter organic compounds which many pharmaceuticals have, so probably does help, but no guarantee. It will take out fluoride, but if your water is heavily fluoridated, the filter will be used up quickly. The website suggets replacing the filter at .02-.04 for flouride removal. Only reverse osmosis systems handle fluoride completely. But, reverse osmosis takes out all minerals, even the ones your body needs. Have your water tested for fluoride content. It might not be as high as you think? I also let my water stand over night, so some of the chemicals that will evaporate, can do so before I pour it into the filter system. This helps my filters last longer. It is also helpful if you run your tap for a bit before you fill up. Many impurities sort of rise to the top of pipe as it sits. You will have cleaner water if you run it a bit. I imagine this is one reason a few people say their filters go bad so fast. I've never had this experience.

No, there are other filters they sell for removing fluoride, such as the CQE-WH-11630.

No it does not. It is an enzymatic cleaner, so it is much more gentle than fluoride.

The filter that comes with it takes out fluoride. You don't need to buy anything else.

It is reverse osmosis so yes it is the only way to filter out fluorine. But get the ph alkaline filter to put desirable minerals back in.

Yes, if you purchase one with filters for fluoride. The unit can fit up to four filters. You can purchase the unit with the basic filter set or basic set plus fluoride filters. We have well water, so I didn't get the fluoride filters. I hear they work well though.
