Brita water okay?

Here's a link that compares water filters, including Brita and Pur

The claims are that they remove chlorine and organic contaminants. That seems like activated carbon filtration. I see no reference to removal of Calcium or Sodium (or their salts).

The Brita site talks about chlorine, copper and organics, but not about hardness or salts.
