I found this at their web site: The current line of H2O+ water filtration systems are specifically designed not to remove fluoride. Fluoride is a mineral that promotes dental health and has other beneficial qualities when in small quantities, as found in most municipal water systems. However, we realize that some people still want to remove fluoride from their water and are working on additional models to meet this need. Go to http://brondell.com/water-filter-faq/ for more details. Other than that, it is good for apartments where you cannot drill a hole in the counter top to get a reverse osmosis, or I would have gotten a reverse osmosis.

The ceramic filters are the only other types of filters that are used for removing fluoride, next to a reverse osmosis system, so, the answer here would be yes. Thank you, - jacques

The store that I attempted to purchased it at send me a drill bit. It is a great water filter. It is not distilled however it removes around 99% of contaminates. It does not remove fluoride. There is an additional attachment that will remove fluoride. It is one of the best but they also charge a lot for it.

Yes on the chlorine, and maybe on the fluoride. They actually say they are not certified for fluoride, but if the tester reads 000 then it has removed the fluoride as well.I have to say this is the best filter we have ever used and when I first bought the pitcher, we lived in a city with really nasty and heavily chlorinated water. Even my dog would get diarrhea when he drank the city water. After filtering with this system it was clear and tasteless! And mine always last way more than 2 weeks!!

The filter goes between the case (green) and the frame (brown) and does hold the grounds. To clean, I remove the frame with lid from the unit over the sink, then shake the filter and remaining grounds into the trash. I rinse the frame while pushing the lid out from the inside in the sink along with the case. Takes longer to explain than do. No filter screens to clean.

Youtube 'Stop Fluoride! ProPur Water Filter Review.' This is a larger propur than mine. If you have a larger one as well, you'll want to see the separate filter for move fluoride removal, although this one removes most as well. If you'll upgrade your existing filters to the new ProOne G2.0 filters, it will remove the fluoride. New for 2014, the second generation of Propur's hi performance all-in-one water & fluoride filter elements. They finally have it for 5" Traveler and Nomad (pair) which I have, and then of course, the larger sizes as I listed below. 7" Nomad and Big (pair) and the 9" King (pair). I'll be upgrading myself now that it's available in my size Propur. It's excellent. The ProOne G2.0 Water & Fluoride filter removes glyphosate. More commonly known as Monsanto's Roundup, glyphosate is a very common herbicide used in commercial farming and landscaping. Glyphosate water contamination is increasing due to run-off cause by the wide-spread use of Roundup in GMO crops. Protect you and your family from the many unnatural and harmful chemicals found in your water supply with the ProOne G2.0 Water & Fluoride filter.

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.

It says it supposed to filter chlorine, chloramines and "other synthetic chemicals". Im not positive but I'm pretty sure that is does not filter fluoride, I wish it did.

Its not exactly a filter, but yes, there is a removable metal mesh on the front spout that could be exchanged and/or washed/cleaned. It would not remove small particles, but only bigger parts (calcium deposits from hard water for example).

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

It filters flouride bromine chlorine and lots of other stuff. The packaging has a huge, very detailed list of what it filters and how well. Rest assured this is the BEST gravity fed countertop filter.

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

It will remove fluoride if you get the 2 white ceramic fluoride filters with it, or you can order them separately from Amazon.com. WELL worth the money.

If you are talking about fluoride, no. You will need specialty filters, distillation, or reverse osmosis to remove fluoride from tap water.

Yes, the filter goes under the sink. The only thing visible on your counter top/sink is what you see in the picture.
