Fluoride, though often touted for dental health, can silently invade your home’s water supply in excess amounts, triggering a range of hidden problems. Excess fluoride can lead to a metallic taste in your water, staining of sinks and fixtures, and even subtle health disturbances like dental fluorosis or discomfort in sensitive individuals. Beyond these symptoms, unchecked fluoride can degrade the overall comfort and safety of your household water, potentially harming your family’s well-being and your home's plumbing over time.

The system that fixes it

Designed specifically to combat fluoride’s intrusive presence, the Pentair Fluoride System is a purpose-built solution that combines trusted technology and premium materials. At its heart lies the Pentair-series metered control valve, a sophisticated component that precisely manages water flow and regeneration cycles to maximize fluoride removal and system longevity. This genuine, serviceable brand valve is crucial—it ensures dependable performance and allows for easy maintenance, so your home’s water quality remains consistently high without frequent replacements. The system’s tank is built around a specialty ion-exchange design, housing activated alumina media that actively traps fluoride ions through ligand exchange as water passes through. This approach guarantees that fluoride is efficiently and continuously removed, protecting your home and health.

• Metered control valve: Automatically measures water use and initiates regeneration only when needed, optimizing efficiency and longevity.
• Serviceable branded valve: Ensures easy repairs and parts replacement, reducing downtime and cost.
• Specialty ion-exchange tank: Constructed to support flawless media performance and durability under varying water conditions.
• Activated alumina media: Specifically targets fluoride ions for superior adsorption and removal.
• Engineered for reliability: Every component is matched and designed to work seamlessly within the system for consistent fluoride reduction.

Pick your size

Selecting the right size depends on your household's water usage and the number of bathrooms, ensuring optimal fluoride removal tailored to your home's needs.

What it does for your home

• Delivers consistently clean, great-tasting water by removing fluoride ions that cause unpleasant flavors.
• Protects plumbing fixtures and appliances from fluoride-induced staining and buildup.
• Reduces potential health risks associated with excessive fluoride exposure, supporting family comfort.
• Prevents dental fluorosis symptoms in vulnerable household members by controlling fluoride intake at the tap.
• Maintains balanced water chemistry, minimizing corrosion and extending the lifespan of pipes.
• Enhances overall water quality, providing peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

This system acts as a guardian against fluoride’s subtle damage, turning your tap water into a safe, refreshing resource.

How the media works

The activated alumina media in this system operates through a process called ligand exchange. Think of it as a highly specialized sponge with chemical “hooks” designed to attract and capture fluoride ions as water flows through the tank. Instead of simply filtering out particles, this media chemically binds fluoride ions onto its surface, effectively removing them from the water supply. Over time, the media can be regenerated, restoring its capacity, thanks to the metered control valve’s precise timing. This method ensures that fluoride does not pass into your taps, guaranteeing cleaner, safer water for your home every day.

Common questions

Q? How do I know if fluoride levels in my water are too high?
A: You can test your water using a fluoride-specific test kit or through a local laboratory analysis to determine if levels exceed recommended guidelines.

Q? Does the system require frequent maintenance or media replacement?
A: Thanks to the Pentair metered control valve and regenerable activated alumina media, maintenance is minimal and media regeneration can restore fluoride removal capacity without frequent replacements.

Q? Will this system remove other contaminants besides fluoride?
A: This system is specifically designed to target fluoride ions; other contaminants require separate filtration or treatment solutions tailored to those substances.
