Will Fluoride Water Filter Remove Chlorine?

This is a question I get asked a lot. Many people want to remove both fluoride and chlorine from their tap water but are unsure whether one filter can remove both or if they will need two different water filters.

What materials are removed by running water through a water filter depends on the type of media, or filtering materials, used in the manufacture of the filter. Some water filters use only one type of filter medium while other will contain a number of different filtering media. In general the more media used in the construction of the water filter, the more levels of filtration that are provided and the more contaminants that get removed.

If the goal is to remove a single material from your drinking water, such as fluoride or arsenic, then a water filter designed to remove that material and containing only the necessary filtering medium will do the job. One such filter is the Crystal Quest Model CQE-CT-00131.

If, on the other hand, the desire is to remove many materials, a water filter with multiple levels of filtration and filter media will be required. For a good explanation of how this works, take a look at the Crystal Quest Model CQE-CT-00144 with seven levels of filtration.
