Problem with that is finding a system that can handle that volume, and then there is the drawback of waste with RO filtration. Depending on the system RO wastes a gallon for every gallon it purifies. At least. And if you are paying for your water, that can get expensive.
You've definitely had too much fluoride. The conversation obviously pertains to people specifically on municipal water supply. Usually those are metered, so you pay for what you use. Therefore if your RO filter gives you 1 gallon of purified water, but it costs you 2 gallons, then one gallon is "wasted".
I understand what you're saying but I was being literal because people don't really realize that water is never actually wasted. It turns into something else and is used in a different form.
I use a gravity purifier with fluoride and charcoal filters and well water.

If you live on city water you should install a reverse osmosis water filter.

Recommend getting a filter for the shower as well.

Water isn't wasted. It's turned into something else and is used by the earth.
