Does this filter out chloramine? or just chlorine?

Suggest going to the Aquasana home page. Also, there's a list on an environmental page which is how I originally found types of water filters, this one, and what it removes. I do not recall the name of the group but Google your question referencing water filters and Environmental Watchdog groups.

The manufacture does not say anything about ammonia specifically, it does say Chlorination by-products, but since the ammonia is mixed the chlorine (chloramine), i wouldn't consider it a by-product. http://www.aquasana.com/product_detail.php?product_id=11 . Choose carefully, this unit is OK for limited use, i have since changed to a large under counter system due to the filters stopping up and their cost. Filters for the large units can be bought for a fraction of the cost.

Yes, it removes both the taste and odor of chlorine. It produces a crisp clean taste even when the water supplier uses large amounts of chlorine to purify the water. I have been very pleased with the results.

No. I use a charcoal filter. It removes almost all the chlorine , no taste or smell in the filtered water. I change it every six months.

The filter that comes with it is for chlorine, however, they do sell a saltwater one for the pool. Don't expect the pool to last more than two seasons. We were very careful to put it away in the fall, but the inflatable ring will eventually get some kind of hole or separation. The pool was used almost every day for us and at its cost was well worth it. We actually just bought the bigger and deeper one.

I use it to remove fluoride and chlorine. Some contaminants are particles that are too small for this filter to remove.

Have spoken to a representative from Aquasana....they mentioned it filters out "VOCs and SOCs, herbicides, pesticides, industrial solvents, heavy metals such as lead, mercury. Also the by-products of chlorination trihalomehtanes and haloacetic acids"

We have a horrible problem with chlorine - you can even smell it when the water runs for a bath! The Brita filters takes ALL of the chlorine taste out. I would highly recommend using them.

Yes, removes chlorine with just the normal black filters! use it all the time to filter my city tap water to make the perfect "berkey" water! The other two supplemental filters are for fluorine and arsenic.

No, it does not remove chlorine. You would need to install a whole house inline charcoal filter.

I can't say for sure if it eliminates chloramine or not, but I tested the water with a parts per million tester and it comes up between 0-3 parts per million after distillation is completed. Average tap water is 100-400 parts per million. Hope this helps.

It has a hole top and bottom but I've never put chlorine in the filter , the filter it self works great

The HMF2SdgC will remove Trihalomethanes. It will not remove chloramines. We do have a catalytic carbon & KDF85 filter that will remove chloramines.

Actually, I don't know exactly how much chlorine the Culligan FM-15RA Level 3 removes.The filter removes enough chlorine, that I do not taste any chlorine; even after three months.Remember: Less then $10 per month, great tasting water, and a very small environmentalfootprint.

Not sure about chloramine, I got this to remove the minerals in my well water. My water is hard and it's turning my hair orange, and causing damage. This didn't seem to do the trick for me.

No mention of of Chlorine removal on the packaging. This filter is for reducing sediment.

According to the illustration on the WM Filter LLC website, it does remove chlorine. WM Filter LLC claims to be the only authorized company to represent NSA products since 1/1/08.

It doesn't. I recommend a gold mesh filter or at least brown paper ones that don't contain chlorine.
