Good luck with the city boys. When I called and asked they didn't even know if we have chloromines. Makes you want to install a filter system even more when your city water people don't have a clue what they are doing. Russ told me to put in the filter just in case.
As per usual the Internet is full of contradictory information. Some say catalytic carbon removes chloromines and others say no. One site said it removes or binds the chlorine and lets the ammonia pass by. Apparently the catalytic carbon breaks down the chloromine into chlorine and ammonia. I also read that when your pool or drinking water smells like chlorine it's not chlorine it's chloromine. Chlorine is odorless and tasteless. It is apparently more prevalent in the souther states than the northern ones because of water temperature. I think we need some expert info here. My normal unfiltered tap water has a definite taste to it. Is it chlorine or chloromine?
