How well does this filter remove chloramine? I need a filter thats gets all of it out.

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.

Filter traps chloramine needs to be changed every so many months depending on how much was in water before some filter let you back wash which would make it more effective.

I don't think this a large enough filter to do the task you are asking of it. You would want to filter it anyway before the water heater, not on the other side of it when the water is hot. We have a whole house filter that filters out chlorine and chloramines. This filter is in my lay opinion only adequate enought to water some plants ( ie vegetables etc) that you would water with a garden hose.

It works well on chlorine and chlorine-derived products. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) found very high levels of carcinogenic chloramine by-products in Washington DC tap water and recommended filtration through carbon. Chlorine and chloramines are often used to disinfect water at municipal treatment plants and can pose health risks if not effectively removed before reaching the consumer.More info on the effectiveness of different filters here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RIWWJR12SNLQW/

I really don't think it does. If you read the description, it says: *Removes Chlorine, Chloramines, VOCs, and Pesticides/Herbicides. My concern was the chlorine since I use it on my compost - chlorine kills the good bacteris. That said, all the other stuff in city water will probably kill me sooner or later! I hope this was at least somewhat helpful. Also, I mentioned in an earlier post, look at both ends before putting it on the hose, the one that does not have the screen should be tipped up when you remove it from the hose after use because the carbon will run out.

I actually do not have chlorine, I have really nasty Los Angeles water, it got rid of my eczema and dry hair and skin. You have to change the filter that goes inside it at least every six months. It really works great, my skin, hair and nails are normal now.

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.

It will remove 99.9% of all chlorine, chemicals and heavy metals. Yes, it will.

It removes pollutants from regular water. Also it removes chlorine and some fluoride as well (by carbon fiber filter). Please be well informed.

It has a filter/spring that filters out large particles - not chlorine. It would be ideal to buy a carbon filter and connect to your hose bib. I have been using this with vermin tea for over two years and no fertilizers and my yard is the greenest on the street.

absolutely not! It is fabulous. It actually balances with your chlorine to get rid of other mineral buildups, cuts the chlorine use in almost half. We use 1 of their tablets to every 3 chlorine in our pool and never have any problems anymore. We used to get areas of green algae around the filter and drain before . I highly recommend it.

I don't believe it does. The only mention is that it filters out 99% of the chlorine.

Really!? You filter it before it goes in or add the chemical to the tank, this has nothing to do with removing chlorine! :-/

In the description of the product, it does not state 'This product removes chlorine' so I would say this specific straw is not designed for that. Best wishes on your journey, sir or ma'am!

Pool water would contain way too much chlorine. If you ran it through a filter that is capable of removing chlorine you should be fine.

with the chlorine remover liquid just pour it in as you fill the tank. Do not take all the water out of tank .

I followed a recommendation for this filter from a chriskresser.com. He had a link to a guy who rated them. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a product that removes everything yet. It doesn't make the water feel sticky. Our water isn't hard so I'm not sure how it would perform there. Sorry.
