CuZn ILF-200 Wide Spectrum + Fluoride Inline Refrigerator Water Filter

I live in Phoenix, AZ and the tap water here is very hard, tastes dry, and loaded with chlorine and fluoride! Filters or systems that take out any of the fluoride are hard to find. This filter has made the water on ice on my fridge taste refreshing again. Plus it is filtering out the some of the nasty fluoride and all the chlorine. The ph of the water has also gone up as well for me, which I did not even expect out of the filter.Installation was a breeze, all you need is pliers and short piece of 1/4 inch fridge supply hose that you can get at lowes or home depot for around $4. Have a bucket handy and fully turn off the valve and untighten your existing line and replace it with the shorter one. Then plug it int he filter, run a few gallons through it and then attach the other hose. DONE!I am already calculating all the money I am going to save on bottled water!!!

Inline Refrigerator Fluoride Water FilterInstallation: I already had a different filter so it was only a matter of moving the refrigerator, removing the old one and putting in place the new one. I used the new hardware provided -washer and nuts and no leaks detected after 2 weeks.Filter looks and feel different from previous I owned: first the unit is slightly longer, thicker and heavier. The case is transparent and the different type of filter media inside can be seen which I think is a good idea from the manufacturer.Make sure it is flushed before the installation--read the provided instructions; after filling a 5 gallon bucket the water coming out was clear. Pressure was almost as good as without the filter. After flush , before connecting the hose to the fridge I filled few glass gallon bottles and tasted the water --the result was good -no chlorine or bad taste ; I had a bottle with me out in the garden ( over 95 F) and the water still tested good ( try drinking unfiltered water at that temperature). We drink a lot of tee and are very picky with the water we use for it; using only the fridge filter was not satisfactory to make tee, but using this filter in conjunction with the fridge filter the water tasted good enough .I chose the filter for its ability to reduce the fluoride and chloride. I have not done any measurements yet, but based on the taste only the results meet the expectations.So far no complains although I would strongly recommend to the manufacture to make more easily available and in detail what the product actually filters out because is not just fluoride. (they have it on their website but not very straight forward to find or to read)[...]

I hooked it up and I cannot get it to stop leaking. So I cannot comment on the taste of the water or anything like that because I had to remove it.

The filter has always had a drip leak at the cap. Instead of returning after install we decided to place a cup to catch the water and remember to empty the cup once a week otherwise the filter works as advertised.

We are very concerned about the chlorine and fluoride in our water and were very happy to find CuZu Water Systems filter that takes out both in our refrigerators water and ice. The customer service has been very helpful identify which filter would work best for our system. They kindly answered all my questions.Since I already had an inline filter on my refrigerator, it was a matter of a few minutes replacing and installing it. It just took the most time flushing the filter, but overall easy install process.I would highly recommend this product. I will come back on here in a few months, but right now it is deliver pure, clean water and ice for us.Thanks CuZn!!

I purchased this for well water after receiving test results stating I have higher than recommended amount of fluoride and sodium in my water. I haven't re-tested so don't know how well it is filtering, but I am happy with the water clarity and taste. I was considering a reverse osmosis filter but decided against it due to cost, water waste and health issues from drinking water with desirable minerals removed.It seems to be a well-made filter. It comes packaged with clear directions and components for plastic or copper tubing. Also includes a wall mount hanger that works well.Amazon dropped the price by 50% right after I purchased so a little bummed about that.

The water tastes terrible.
