Hey, Weston - We have been working to become the national experts on the reduction/removal of fluoride on a whole house basis. We are using a multi-stage process the includes both the
reactivated activated alumina and a very special type of bone char (many bone chars are simply not effective after being placed in service for a short time). We also include media that reduces heavy metals, including aluminum. pH is a critical factor in the life of a fluoride filter - the more alkaline the less effectiveness and the shorter the useful life. See results on our HealthyHome Solution whole house system in an ongoing field test in San Diego, CA here:

self monitor with inexpensive independent lab testing at least every 6 months, if not every 3 months. Because you cannot taste or smell fluoride, you need total control if you are serious about addressing this toxin. You can also learn more about our efforts if you peruse our site at
