Does Brita Remove Nitrate?
No
No Brita pitcher, faucet or Hub filter is certified for nitrate. The only Brita-branded products certified for it are two reverse-osmosis systems: NSF lists the Brita Pro BPLRO-35 and the Brita Total360 BRDROS under NSF/ANSI 58.
Based on the itemized NSF, WQA & IAPMO certified-model listings we track for Brita (36 of 38 models).
