The following From waterchef website: Q: Does this system remove fluoride from the water? A: No. While it does have a limited ability to reduce fluoride, it is very dependent upon the pH of the water. If you have had your water tested and find that fluoride is a major concern for you, we recommend finding a reputable manufacturer for either a reverse osmosis or distillation system. Be sure that the system has been independently tested and certified by either NSF or the Water Quality Association (WQA) for fluoride reduction. If you have questions, or would like assistance, feel free to call WaterChef Customer Care at 1-800-879-8909. One of our support specialists can help you find a reputable manufacturer that fits your specific needs.

No. I would find out what my water supply level of fluoride is first. I was surprised to learn my municipal supply has very low levels of fluoride, but high lead levels so went with this single filter model.

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

To my knowledge, it doesn't. I've yet to find any shower filter that removes fluoride from the shower. A few may claim to but I've sent most of them off for testing and they all fail the fluoride tests.

Yes, it filters chlorine plus a lot of other bad things. If you want the floride to be removed, you need to buy additional filters.

I had no idea until you asked, so I just did an online search for the item and came up with this. It says NO, it removes no fluoride. Wish I'd have known this before I bought it. :( http://www.discountfilterstore.com/fm-25-culligan-water-faucet-filter.html

I believe the 'standard' filters DO NOT remove fluoride... separate filters are needed.

No it does not. In the fine print, you see it is NSF 42 for water treatment standard. Filters for making flouride-free water are NSF 53/ For more info: http://www.nsf.org/services/by-industry/water-wastewater/residential-water-treatment/residential-drinking-water-treatment-standards/

Here is the answer from Zerowater's FAQ: "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."

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!

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, 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.

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.

I do not know. We have a well and the water does not have any fluoride that I know of. The directions for the unit does not say whether or not it removes fluoride.
