We Have Water Filters That Remove Fluoride!
The American Dental Association, in November 2006, reversed itself and announced that the ingestion of fluoride is too dangerous for babies. They have notified their members of this, but we are not aware of any effort to notify the public. You can read more about that and other risks of drinking fluoride, including that it is carcinogenic, at our page Fluoride Dangers.

Fluoride is very hard to remove. It is normally part of a metallic compound in water, and it takes the attraction of a metallic substance to remove it. Every metal has a charge, either positive or negative, and each can be either strong or weak. The right combination happens with activated alumina, which is in one of the canisters of the double-canister water purifier. Through the attraction of the metals, 90% to 98% is normally removed (rated at 2400 ppm). The fluoride coats the surface of the alumina over time.
Activated alumina is aluminium oxide, the same chemical substance as sapphire and rubies, but without the impurities that give the gems their color. It has a very high surface-area-to-weight ratio. It has a lot of tunnel-like pores that run all through it. This means that there is a lot of surface area against which the water interacts, thereby breaking down the chemical makeup and eliminating fluoride. The alumina is not processed aluminum and it does not leach into the water. The amount of time, the coldness of the water and the acidity all increase the effectiveness. Typically these filters will remove up to 98% of fluoride.
The water moves through the special fluoride filter first, then through the kdf and carbon filters, so that they can additionally remove any small amounts of fluoride that might have made it that far.
You can remove fluoride with the double-canister water filters found in our store. The undercounter fluoride removing filter is our UC-2K-F. For above the counter there are two versions - white food-grade plastic called the CT-2K-F and a chrome finish version the CT-2K-F-C. In all of these, one canister contains the standard (KR-101N) filter cartridge - with both kdf copper-zinc and charcoal water purifiers - that does everything described above. The other canister removes fluoride. The water runs through the fluoride filter first, then through the copper-zinc (kdf) and the carbon. This undercounter water filter system comes with its own faucet that goes through the extra opening in your sink.

Undercounter & Countertop Models
We carry undercounter water filters to clean your drinking water. One is the fluoride-removing, double canister model just mentioned. Each of the 2-canister undersink water filters come with their own faucet, which can go through the opening in your kitchen sink.
The Big Splash at friendsofwater.com has an undersink fluoride water filter for his house. Since the "extra" opening wasn't open, he called in a plumber to install the system (and to get the plumber's opinion on the water filter). The plumber had made the changed need and had the new filter installed in about 35 minutes. In his opinion the parts are of good quality and the saddle valve to tie into the water line (which is included) was clever and well made. He was very impressed with the strong water flow through the faucet. In his experience this was much better than most water filters.
Both the while and the chrome 2-canister countertop drinking water filters come with a swivel spout that is directly off the filter canister. If you prefer, we'll substiture a diverter that carries the water back to your kitchen sink faucet.
Every one of these drinking water filters removes more than 600 contaminants including chlorine, arsenic, lead, heavy metals, trihalomethanes and pesticides in much the same way that Mother Earth uses the minerals in the rocks and ground to clean water as it runs through to the aquifers. Those listed on this page also remove fluoride.
