If you want excellent water filtration, you have to spend some money. We use a Multipure under sink filter from Best Filters.com http://www.bestfilters.com/Multipure-Undercounter-Water-Filter-With-Arsenic-Reduction_p_572.html Best Filters offer a wide range of excellent filters at various price levels – worth looking at just to get ideas.

RE: CSOT - shower filter
I can't find where they stipulate their water purification system removes Fluoride either? Most systems I've read about tell you many things their filters remove but none seem to mention or itemise Fluoride removal? We use tank rain water so it's no big issue for us. I can live with whatever impurities are naturally occurring in rain water, but I object to being force 'medicated?' with chemicals that are added to the water supply. N.

Alumina is aluminum oxide, a very hard ceramic. It has a wide range of uses, from grinding abrasive, plastic filler, electrical insulator (like for spark plugs), filter medium, paint filler/pigment, catalyst, and gemstones, such as rubies and sapphires.
