You have to purchase the white flouride filters in addition. They work great!

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.

All I know is that I don't like the taste of Tacoma's water straight from the tap, and I do believe that it has flouride. We use this filter for all of our drinking water and it tastes clean and pure, but not flat. I can't way for sure that it filters out flouride, though. Sorry. I can say that it does last a long time. Up to ten months for two people who each drink one to two quarts of water a day, plus lots of coffee and/or tea.

This portable water filter will not filter fluoride! Berkey does offer fluoride filtration filters that can be added to their larger filtration systems.

Yes, the special resin components in the filter are designed to remove 85% of the fluoride in the water.Customer Support,New Century Innovations (NCI) http://www.amazon.com/shops/nci-nu

From internet research, it seems only the Multipure Model MP750PlusRO reverse osmosis system filters out fluoride. Solid carbon block systems, in general, do not remove fluoride.

With the 2 filters on this unit i can't see why it would not reduce the tds i don't know of any filters that completely remove all contaminates

A charcoal filter will not filter out fluoride. You would have to use reverse osmosis if you want the fluoride out.

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

Yes, the filter takes out fluoride. That's why I bought this in the first place. The only "catch" - if you want to make sure the fluoride is taken out, you'll need to replace the filter more often, about once every 3 months I think. It will produce great-tasting water for quite a bit longer, but you can't be sure that the fluoride is gone after that. I called them up when I first started using this filter and they explained that to me.

Q. Does the ZeroWater filter remove Fluoride? A. ZeroWater filters are not certified for the reduction of fluoride however fluoride is an inorganic compound. The TDS meter is designed to detect inorganic compounds. Fluoride levels in water are usually around 2 to 4 ppm, which will show up on the meter as 002 to 004. So when filtered water reads 000 it is not likely that fluoride is present in water. For more FAQs about filters go to www.zerowater.com.

looking at the box right now and I do not see flouride listed. So I am going to assume that it does not test for it.

The filters on this one do not remove Fluoride, however you can order the fluoride filter and add it on. I got the fluoride filter from cyrstal quest for $50 , added it on and now it removes everything. The system works well. The filters last for 12-18 months depending on use. It is well worth the extra cost for the filter. good luck.

Probably not, or at least not significantly. The Culligan FM-15RA level 3 filter probably contains mostly activated carbon (charcoal). (That's the black material you see when you first install a new filter.) The activated carbon works really well for some things, but not for fluoride. Check out an article in the Journal of Canadian Dental Association titled, "Neither hollow-fibre membrane filters nor activated-charcoal filters remove fluoride from fluoridated tap water". The results of this scientific study are dated June 2008 and can be found in an abstract on the web. The water was tested for fluoride before and after using activated charcoal filters. There was concern that the filters might remove so much fluoride from tap water that further fluoridation of the water was required. According this study, some fluoride was removed by the filter from tap water, but only in the very early stages of the filter lifetime. In other words, it might work for a short time, but not for long.

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.

When looking into the Doulton site, this is what I found:Fluoride: Most Doulton filters will not remove fluoride. However, optional fluoride filters can be added to those filters. They screw onto the stems of the ceramic filters, and when installed will be hanging below the top chamber. Add on fluoride filters are not needed when the system is used with the CeraMetix all in one ceramic and fluoride filter.
