Chlorine & Chloramine Removal System

Remove chlorine and chloramine from city water

Municipal utilities add chlorine or chloramine to keep water safe on its journey to your home — but by the time it reaches your tap, that disinfectant shows up as a swimming-pool taste and smell, dries out skin and hair, and can be hard on rubber seals and aquariums. Chloramine, a longer-lasting chlorine-ammonia compound many cities now use, is especially stubborn.

The right media for the job

Ordinary carbon handles free chlorine, but chloramine needs catalytic carbon and enough contact time to break the bond and remove it thoroughly. This whole-house system is built for both, so every fixture delivers cleaner, better-tasting water.

How it works

Water flows through a catalytic carbon bed that adsorbs chlorine and drives the reactions that neutralize chloramine. On a scheduled backwash the bed is rinsed and re-settled to keep flow and capacity consistent, with no cartridges to swap.

Before you choose

• Check your utility: knowing whether your city uses chloramine determines the media and sizing.
• Size to demand: more fixtures and higher flow call for a larger bed.
• Whole-house benefit: softer-feeling showers and better-tasting water everywhere.

Tell us your household size and whether your water is chlorinated or chloraminated and we will confirm the build. Ships free in the US with manuals and knowledgeable support so city-water taste and odor are gone for good.

Why the disinfectant type changes everything

Free chlorine dissipates relatively easily, but many utilities switched to chloramine precisely because it is more stable in the distribution system, and that same stability makes it harder to remove at home. A quick call to your water provider, or a look at their annual water-quality report, tells you which you have, and that single fact drives the media choice and the sizing of your system.

Everyday benefits

Beyond better-tasting drinking water, removing chlorine and chloramine means softer-feeling showers, less irritation for sensitive skin, longer life for rubber seals and appliances, and safer water for planted aquariums. The system maintains itself with automatic backwashing, and we provide the manuals and support to get it sized and installed for your home.
