WSP Whole House Carbon Filter - Chlorine Chloramine Removal

Does your water test show chlorine or chloramine levels causing that sharp, swimming-pool taste and smell? This is common with city-treated water and can affect how your water feels and smells throughout your home. The WSP Whole House Carbon Filter targets these specific chemicals to improve your water’s taste and odour at every tap.

How Chlorine and Chloramine Affect Your Daily Water

When your water test reveals chlorine or chloramine, you might notice dry skin after showering or a persistent chemical smell in your drinking water. Chlorine gives water that familiar pool scent, while chloramine, a more stubborn compound, can linger longer and be tougher to remove. These disinfectants also wear down rubber seals in appliances and can stress sensitive aquarium life. Simply put, your water can feel harsh, taste off, and cause extra wear around the house.

What the Control Head Does to Keep Water Flowing and Clean

The system features an automatic control head that manages backwashing — a rinsing cycle that lifts and flushes the carbon bed to clear trapped contaminants. This keeps the filter working efficiently without manual intervention. You set the schedule, and the system handles the rest, saving you time and maintaining consistent water quality without needing cartridge replacements.

Why Catalytic Carbon Suits This Job Best

The core of this filter is its media: catalytic activated carbon combined with granular activated carbon. While regular carbon tackles chlorine by adsorption (holding it on the carbon’s surface), catalytic carbon goes a step further by driving chemical reactions that break down chloramine, which is harder to remove. This combination makes the system effective against both chlorine, chloramine, and even hydrogen sulfide, ensuring your water smells and tastes better.

The Water Tank Holds the Media and Fits Your Home’s Needs

This water-treatment system comes with a durable pressure vessel designed for whole-house use. Although the exact tank size is confirmed when the system is sized for your specific water demand, it is built to hold enough media to treat the volume of water a typical single-family home uses. The tank is backed by a lifetime warranty, giving you long-term reliability.

Is This Filter the Right Size for Your Home?

This system suits a standard single-family home on a whole-house supply line, handling everyday flow and usage. Homes with significantly higher water demands or multiple bathrooms might require a larger system for best results. Conversely, smaller properties with low usage could consider a different size. Confirming your water flow needs and test results helps ensure this filter matches your household.

What You Receive and How to Move Forward

Included with your purchase is the lifetime-warranted pressure vessel, an automatic control head to manage backwash cycles, a bypass valve so you can isolate the system during service without shutting off water to your home, and 10 feet of discharge hose for the drain line. Shipping from Tampa is free and included in the price. Once you order, we provide sizing assistance based on your water test and home demands to ensure proper fit.

Who this size is right for

This is a whole-house system, plumbed into the main line so every tap in the house is treated. On a typical 1-inch service line that means a single-family home.

We do not publish a fixed capacity for this item, and we would rather size it on your numbers than guess: send us your peak flow rate in gallons per minute and a water test, and we will confirm the right size before you order.
