Fluoride Removal Water Filter Cartridge

FL (Activated Alumina) Removes fluoride slightly better — 95%+ vs 90%+. That's it. The media is a synthetic mineral compound. Works best on lower pH water and can be affected by high bicarbonate levels in your water, which reduces its effectiveness. Only removes fluoride and low levels of arsenic.
FL-BC (Bone Char) Slightly lower fluoride removal at 90%+ but covers significantly more ground — fluoride, arsenic, radium, uranium, and other radionuclides. The media is literally charred animal bone, which has been used for water purification for nearly 200 years. More natural origin, broader contaminant coverage.
Bottom line:
If fluoride removal is your only goal and you want maximum fluoride reduction — go FL.
If you want fluoride removal plus broader heavy metal and radionuclide coverage, or you prefer a more natural media — go FL-BC.
For a health-focused, sustainability-minded customer like yours, FL-BC is probably the better fit and the easier sell. The 200-year history of bone char and the broader coverage is a more compelling story than a slightly higher fluoride percentage.

FL (Activated Alumina) — Made in USA Removes fluoride 95%+. Works best on lower pH water but can be affected by high bicarbonate levels. Removes fluoride and low levels of arsenic only. Best if fluoride removal is your sole concern and you want the highest fluoride reduction percentage.
FL-BC (Bone Char) — Made in USA Removes fluoride 90%+ plus arsenic, radium, uranium, and other radionuclides. Media is charred animal bone — a natural purification method with nearly a 200-year history. Broader contaminant coverage for roughly the same fluoride removal rate. Best for health-focused customers who want more than just fluoride out of their water.
Bottom line:
If fluoride removal is your only goal and you want maximum fluoride reduction — go FL.
If you want fluoride removal plus broader heavy metal and radionuclide coverage, or you prefer a more natural media — go FL-BC.
