Does the filter remove sodium or salt from water? Desalination?

I can't find anything in the description that says it does, so my guess would be no.

I have not used it with salt water, but I was on a mission trip and had to drink water from a dirty well. It did filter the sand from the water. Not sure if this helps, but I do love this water bottle and plan to buy more.

The filter is made in Hong Kong BUT the media inside comes from the USA. It does not add sodium.

I haven't tried it, but the filter is for removing chlorine which means it is filled with activated carbon most likely. You want a deionization filter which removes charged particles that would result in scaling, aka water spots.

No, it does not! Protec keeps the water clean! But I filter my water thru a PUR filter and my Calcium and other mineral build-up is non existent now!

My pool builder installed this for my salt water pool. We haven't had any issues and there isn't any indication that it is filtering out the salt. From the manufacturers FAQ "Nature2 can be used with every type of chemical treatment program available except biguanide products and copper-based algaecides."

You mean "does it remove chlorine"? I would say no. The description says it reduces chlorine taste and odor. Not sure how as it's just a paper filter and its main purpose is to remove solids. Chlorine is liquid and would just seep thru along with the water. While it may reduce taste & odor it certainly cannot remove any actual chlorine.

Yes, the RO process removes up to 98% of everything and the DI filter removes all ions left after the RO process. Giving you distilled quality water for use in lab or aquarium use. afwfilters

As I understand it, the RO membrane removes...everything... the water then flows through the mineral filter (not a filter in the normal sense) and picks up what I assume are good minerals.

I bought this for a friend and don't remember a filter. Sorry I cannot be more informative.

Yea it does, the built in filter removes a lot of sediment and chlorine smell and taste.

Yes it has five different filters and it removes everything and the water has no taste at all. That is why they call it zero water.

I'm not really sure but I noticed that the filter makes the water odorless when I drink it.

Yes, basically what you have left is H2O. No salts from softeners, no chlorine, no minerals. Some say minerals and even bacteria are important to humans. If so I'd rather have my water pure and get minerals other ways. Dave

It uses a carbon filter. So it would also filter some of your additive. You can always use scrubbers and cut them to size to only filter the debri, I`ve done it with other fountains before when I decided to stop buying the filters.

No it doesn't. fluoride is hard to remove - needs ion exchange or reverse osmosis. this filter (and most other shower filters including aquasana) remove chlorine.

there was a reviewer that answered this question, using strips to test the water. he said it does remove a lot of chlorine. i am glad i purchased it. when i take a salt bath, it is best to try and remove chlorine, and i feel this helps in making it a truer salt bath.

The best I can tell it just removes the chlorine from the water I really dont think its a filter. But check with the manufacturer ..
