Will the Water Distiller remove Fluoride from the water

As far as I understand, it does. Be careful not to drink it too long. It's okay to drink it for a little while but isn't good for you to drink log term.

Yes, it removes fluoride from the water. For a complete list of all the chemicals it removes, see: http://www.waterwise.com/productcart/pc/lc_purity.asp

I don't know for sure but removal of fluoride is one of the reasons that I bought the product. I seriously doubt that fluoride would be transferred through the steam.

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.

The way to reduce the fluoride in your water is to add a Reverse Osmosis System, the whole house filters will not remove the fluoride.

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

I personally don't think that matters. The distilling process will remove just about all the impurities from the water.

That is what I have read. I have two distillers now b/c I live in a big a city and the water quality is Horrible... not to mention all the fluoride and chloride in it. I absolutely love our distillers, but I do recommend buying the cleaning solution for them and back up filters. I replace our carbon filters once a month and clean the containers (soak it in the cleaning solution for a few hours & rinse) once a week. Also be sure to buy glass jugs or BPA free plastic containers for your fridge to store. The water taste so refreshing and clean.

I don't think so, but there are some systems on the market that do. Google it. More to the point, have you done any real research on the fluoridated drinking water controversy? I suggest you take an hour or three and do that, then just go with the Everpure system. It's really excellent.

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.

It should as the meter reads 000 and fluoride is an inorganic compound. Zero water is designed to remove inorganic compounds so when the water reads 000 there shouldn't be any fluoride.

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.

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.

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.

No it does not. I purchased this unit and after a few months of great water I got to thinking about fluoride. After I realized that this wonderful unit doesn't remove fluoride I purchased a system that distills water. Now I've got 100% pure drinking water. However, this is a great unit for what it does do.

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

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

"Does BRITA reduce / remove fluoride ?The BRITA Water Filter System does not remove fluoride from tap water. Fluoride is a negatively charged ion and does not react with the components of the BRITA Filter Cartridge."--from:http://www.brita.com.au/customerservice/faqs-jugs_and_cask

According to the website, they seem to have no idea."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."That's why I want one, too. To protect my teeth and precious bodily fluids.
