Guest guest Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Just as a reference -- I just replaced my filter in my refrigerator and this is what is on the box.

Tosaphene *The replacement cartridge T2RFWG2 meets the lead reduction requirements for compliance under NSF/ANSI Standard 5.3 as tested by Pace Analytical Services, Inc.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 I believe you can purchase a whole house filtration system that does remove floride and other chemicals from the water. That water would then be filtered again with your refridgerator filter. Reverse Osmosis is in my opionion the best available.
