That unmistakable chemical tang in your water isn’t just unpleasant—it’s the hallmark of chlorine presence that can ruin the taste of your morning coffee, leave a harsh odor in your shower, and even settle as a dry film on your dishes. Over time, this chlorinated water doesn’t just irritate your senses; it can impact the protective plumbing in your home and diminish your family’s comfort and health. Living with the persistent chlorine taste and smell means constantly settling for less than the clean, refreshing water your home deserves.
The system that fixes it

How the media works
The secret weapon behind the Fleck Chlorine Taste & Smell System lies in its high-grade catalytic activated carbon media. Unlike ordinary carbon, this catalytic form is specially treated to react with chlorine molecules and their odor-causing compounds, adsorbing and breaking them down efficiently. This process not only removes chlorine from your water but also tackles the subtle byproducts that cause the persistent unpleasant taste and smell. As water flows through the media, these contaminants stick to the carbon surface like a magnet, leaving you with crystal-clear, fresh-smelling water free from chemical interference.

Common questions
Q? How quickly will the system remove the chlorine taste and smell from my water?
A The Fleck Chlorine Taste & Smell System begins reducing chlorine and its odors immediately upon installation, with full elimination noticeable after initial backwashing and media saturation.
Q? Will the system remove chloramines, or just chlorine?
A This system is optimized for chlorine and its taste and odor compounds. While it reduces chlorine effectively, chloramines may require specialized treatment options not covered by this system.
Q? How often does the system need maintenance or media replacement?
A Thanks to the backwashing control valve and high-grade catalytic carbon, maintenance is minimal. Periodic backwashing refreshes the media’s efficacy, and carbon replacement is typically recommended only after extensive use based on water quality and household size.
