I don't know, but any reverse osmosis system that I know of, filters more impurities than any other system. In my review I suggested calling the manufacturer. They are real people who answer the phone, there is nothing automated, and they can answer that question.

RO does not remove dissolved gases from the water so will not remove free ammonia. The ammonia in most waters will be combined so will be removed.

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!

No, you would want to use an iron filter inline before this unit. Thank you! Mark Bunner Abundant Flow Water Systems AFW Filters 785-735-9769

I don't think so. This filter is mainly to filter out small particles.Filters for removing water are usually larger and more complex.

It does filter some types of chemicals. I bought it to filter water in a survival situation, so I mainly wanted it to filter protozoa and the like. I would suggest some type of charcoal filter system for better tasting water and chemical filtering. I must tell you that I am no expert. I only know what I have read. I hope this helps.

Yes there is a very large filter in the center of the unit. It needs to be changed periodically. The filter will turn brown and get stiff. There's an indicator light when the filter needs to be changed. I had unit a humidifier without a unit and it left a white film over my furniture and floor. I got rid of that one!

It does not. I prefer it this way since I have an under-sink water filter that does a much better job than those little charcoal filters, but you may prefer otherwise.

I used to own one but I can't remember. All I remember is the unit didn't actually filter anything ever.

No, but my fridge filter does. This filter is for stopping all the crud in the water lines from getting into your home... such as some water lines are made out of asbestos. The junk in city water also builds into a scaly coating on the inside of the water lines. This filter will help keep any of this from getting into your home and help the fridge filter last longer.

In my opinion, yes. It comes with advice that you can use to detect dissolved solids in the water. Use it with your tap water and then check water from the filter to see the difference.

The manufacture does not say anything about ammonia specifically, it does say Chlorination by-products, but since the ammonia is mixed the chlorine (chloramine), i wouldn't consider it a by-product. http://www.aquasana.com/product_detail.php?product_id=11 . Choose carefully, this unit is OK for limited use, i have since changed to a large under counter system due to the filters stopping up and their cost. Filters for the large units can be bought for a fraction of the cost.

Yes it does. And depending on how hard the water is in your area, it may filter for quite a while or need to be changed sooner. This is a wooden stand with a ceramic receptacle only. You will have to buy the Zero Water filtering unit to sit on top of the ceramic, similar to a 5 gallon water bottle.

Yes - it has it's own filter system and everything it cleans up stays inside the unit. When it is done you open it up, dump out debris and hose off the filters.

No, you have threaded connectors that will attach to the filter body. However you will have a bit of a plumbing job in connecting your existing input, return and waste water lines to the unit itself.

No. Also the filtered water has light black or blue color and taste bad. Do not buy it.

Yes it does both produce pure H2O and filter fluoride, as well as filtering chlorine and other contaminants out of the water. The only possible downside is the water being too soft (low electrical conductivity/minerals), which I add trace minerals to my water after distilling for balance and to re-ionize the water and make it less soft.

No, it will not filter water but it is a very good particulate filter.I use this filter just upstream of my water separating filter.
