Does this RO system remove flouride?

Yes, RO removes fluoride... Here is a link to check out:http://www.infobarrel.com/Does_Reverse_Osmosis_Remove_Fluoride_in_your_Drinking_Water

Fluoride? It is my understanding that it does, since one of the steps involves reverse osmosis, but of course, I am not neither a specialist nor the manufacturer. Nevertheless, I am the delighted owner of two Artesian systems and I wholeheartedly recommend them after many years of use. Keep in mind that you only need to change filters once a year! I am not one of these gullible people who spend a fortune on expensive bottled water...

According to the manufacturer it eliminates 93.9% of the fluoride. Here is link that shows what contaminants are removed by the reverse osmosis process. http://www.theperfectwater.com/What-contaminants-can-reverse-osmosis-remove.html PS. I am also a delighted owner, the water tastes great! Highly recommend.

Sorry it took so long to get back with you. It is my understanding via website info, that this does NOT filter flouride. Here is the customer service number to make sure. 800-592-8371.

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.

One cartridge is made specifically for Fluoride Removal....which is specific, as normally, only RO system handle Fluoride. I am sorry you are not thrilled with my answer, but please understand I only understood that you wanted to know what the difference was in the filters, and this is a 2 cartridge systems which can be eventually mixed and matched as desired, and with a variety of filters for different needs. Thank you, jacques

RO systems may be able to remove the flouride from water whereas the Waterchef 9000, which is no an RO system, is not designed to do. Other than flouride, the waterchef 9000 is very good with filtering the water. It is certified by the NSF. We are very happy with our model and chose not to do RO because it lowers the PH of the water.

Yes it does. I tried carbon filters, ionizers and many others. I tested this with the local health department, and ALL of the fluoride was removed. This is the ideal unit to remove this toxic chemical.

Yes you will still ingest the flouride but it will not harm your nor will it be absorbed by your body. In the structuring event when the water is structured any unnatural chemicals like fluoride or chlorine or bacteria are neutralized pulled to the inside of the water molecule and sent out your elimination system when you use the the bathroom. Those chemicals do not move forward into your bodies cells only the natural elements of water are absorbed into your cells. Water filters only filter water they DO NOT Structure water giving you all the benefits.You can check out our main page & videos on our media page. https://winningwaterunit.com/ https://winningwaterunit.com/all-media/

Bill, Yes, this system does remove arsenic and many other inorganic matter. The 5 micron sediment filter is pretty much a standard RO filter and works great. To absolutely prove that its removed..idk, but I bought a TDS water quality tester to measure the water quality difference from my normal faucet...it was 240 and went down to 4 after the 7 stage filtration. Hope this helps.

I hit the wrong button. I should have said "no." Fluoride is a difficult thing to remove from water, and gravity carbon filter systems may not be the most efficient or effective way to do the job. If you use a gravity water filter system that has carbon in its operation, a more accurate word would be reduce rather than remove. Carbon is generally not the accepted media for fluoride reduction

I don't see the mention of fluoride, but I do see that it removes chlorine. In that light, I would have to say, it must remove fluoride. You could try emailing the seller or the company itself. Hope this helps.

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

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. All reverse osmosis systems filter out fluoride. I have not had it tested but there are other reviewers who have had it tested with amazing results. We are very happy with this product. I installed it myself in less than three hours. Good Luck!

Omica claims that it does. However, they have consistently failed to produce water testing reports to prove it. The activated alumina is what is supposed to remove the fluoride. Even if it works then- how much is being removed? From what I understand the removal of fluoride by activated alumina is dependent on the waters Ph level. So the most accurate answer that anyone can give you (including the people that make the filter) without actual pre and post filter water testing, is.... it might remove some, none or all of the flouride. Who really knows?-After reading the other answers it seems that it fails to remove all of the fluoride for sure. Just start taking fulvic acid. Omica claims that it does.

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

A basic Google search will demonstrate that any distillation system will remove fluoride. Distillation is NOT the same as boiling water. Distillation systems collect the condensation from water heated above its boiling point. That is basically how this unit works. But if you look for Megahome's website, there is a customer service number you can call.
