Autotrol Chloramine (City Water) System

Head valve + tank + media, matched to solve chloramine (city water) — sized and shipped free.

Chloramine in city water sneaks into your home’s plumbing unnoticed, causing dull, flaky skin, lingering unpleasant odors in your water, and even damaging your pipes and appliances over time. This stubborn chemical cocktail doesn’t just taste off—it silently chips away at your family’s comfort and health while driving up maintenance costs. Without the right filtration, your home suffers from water that’s far from clean and pure.

The system that fixes it

The Autotrol Chloramine System is expertly engineered to eliminate the intrusive chloramine from your city water, restoring freshness and safety to every drop. At its core is the Autotrol 263 backwashing control valve, a robust and reliable head valve that orchestrates automatic cleaning cycles to keep your filtration media fresh and effective. This isn’t just any valve—being a genuine Autotrol brand means it’s designed for easy servicing and long-term durability, so your system runs smoothly for years. The filtration tank is built on a durable backwashing carbon tank that houses Centaur catalytic activated carbon media. This specialized media works aggressively to break the bond between chlorine and ammonia, the two components that make up chloramine, then adsorbs both, purifying your water thoroughly. The seamless interplay of advanced valve technology, tank design, and media ensures that chloramine is removed efficiently, shielding your home from its harmful effects.

How the media works

The secret behind this system’s power lies in the Centaur catalytic activated carbon. Unlike ordinary carbon, Centaur is engineered to tackle the tough chloramine molecule, which is a bond of chlorine and ammonia. It catalyzes the chemical reaction, effectively breaking the bond between these two substances so they can be separately absorbed. This dual adsorption ensures that neither chlorine nor ammonia remains in your water. The media’s catalytic properties mean it operates faster and more thoroughly than standard carbon, delivering clean water that’s truly free from chloramine’s harmful effects. This advanced media is why the Autotrol Chloramine System provides a level of purification that city water demands.

Common questions

Q? Why can’t I just use a regular carbon filter to remove chloramine?

A Regular carbon filters are designed mainly to remove chlorine, but chloramine is a much more stable compound. The Centaur catalytic activated carbon in this system specifically breaks the bond between chlorine and ammonia, ensuring complete removal—something ordinary carbon cannot reliably achieve.

Q? How often does the system need maintenance or media replacement?

A Thanks to the Autotrol 263 backwashing control valve, the media is automatically cleaned at scheduled intervals, prolonging its life. Depending on your water usage and chloramine levels, media replacement is generally less frequent, making this system both effective and low-maintenance.

Q? Will this system affect water pressure in my home?

A No, the Autotrol 263 valve is designed to maintain optimal flow rates while filtering. The backwashing process also keeps the media clean, preventing pressure drops that often occur with clogged filters.
