CuZn Chloramine Countertop and Under-Counter Water Filters
Chloramine Water Filter System Removes Chloramines
and Chlorine Out of Water
Clean water is the lifeline to good health and
CuZn Chloramines Water Filters provide the best possible water for
cooking, drinking and washing every time you turn on the faucet by filtering
chlorine and Chloramines out of water.
What Is Chloramines?
Chloramine is a mixture of chlorine and ammonia,
which is added to the water of many cities as a substitute for free
chlorine. It is often referred to in the plural, as “chloramines,”
because it can take on a number of forms according to the pH and mineral
content of the water. Read more about

What Type Of Water Filter Removes Chloramines
From Tap Water?
The use of monochloramine as a primary disinfectant
in a municipal water supply presents specific removal issues due to
its low degradation rate. This means that the disinfectant will be
persistent and have a long life within a municipal water supply. This
has prompted KDF Fluid Treatment, Inc., to investigate the use of its
products as a reductant for monochloramine in potable water.
There is a relationship between pH and the various
oxidation states of nitrogen compounds. Decreasing the bulk pH of the
solution increases the acidity in the vicinity of the medium’s surface
that can then facilitate monochloramine reduction. The presence of
a metal ion that can be precipitated as a hydroxide can have this effect.
This is the basis of the KDF 85 mechanism by which KDF Process Media
reduces monochloramine.
CuZn uses a KDF 85 water filter to remove
Chloramines. But CuZn water filtration products don't stop there. The
CuZn Double Cartridge Chloramine Water Filter includes a combination
of trace minerals (copper and zinc in the patented form of KDF® 55,
which meets NSF standards 42 and 61) and coconut shell carbon, the
CuZn Refillable Countertop water filter removes more than 600 contaminants
from water, including chlorine, lead, heavy metals, trihalomethanes
(THMs), herbicides and pesticides much the same as Nature uses the
earth and its minerals to cleanse water. (Unlike carbon-only filters,
bacteria can't grow inside the bacteriostatic CuZn filters!)

The CuZn Refillable Countertop Double Cartridge
Chloramines Water Filter is also excellent in situations where sulfur
and iron are present and a CuZn Whole House system is not feasible.
Sulfur and iron expends the media more quickly than other contaminants,
so refilling the system is economical and environmentally responsible.
