cloramines - never heard of em - Is this a better poison theyve found to add to ouw water? Promoted by bottled water peddlers? At the cost of bottled water we could afford O3, or colloidal Ag.

Will a carbon filter remove chloramines?
Yes. To be effective, however, it must contain high quality granular activated carbon and you must permit sufficient contact time between the water and the carbon.

Will letting water sit for a few days cause chloramines to disappear?
No. Unlike chlorine, which dissipates when water sits for a few days, chloramines may take weeks to disappear.

Okay, Tom. So how do we remove chloramines?
