Does LG remove PFAS?
Last reviewed July 2026.
Yes — LG holds a certified PFOA/PFOS claim. Not marketing copy: an accredited certifier lists it, and you can look the listing up.
Model by model
| Model | Standards | PFOA/PFOS | Certifier | $ / certified gal |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LT1000P Refrigerator Water Filter LT1000P buy ↗ | 42 53 401 | ✓ | NSF | $0.275 |
LT1000P: NSF-listed to NSF/ANSI 42, 53 and 401. LG's LT800P is listed to 42 and 53 only — the 401 emerging-contaminant claim does not carry across the LT line.
What "removes PFAS" actually covers
The certified claim is PFOA/PFOS reduction — the two legacy compounds the standards test for — not "all PFAS", a family of thousands of chemicals. A certified filter is still the strongest verifiable option a pitcher or fridge filter can offer; just read the claim as written. Standards background: 42 vs 53 vs 401.
