Chlorine Removal Filter
Improve Water Taste, Protect Equipment, and Ensure Safe Water
A chlorine removal filter is designed to eliminate free chlorine, chloramine, and related by-products from municipal or industrial water supplies.
Chlorine is commonly used for disinfection, but excess chlorine can:
-
Cause unpleasant taste and odor
-
Damage reverse osmosis membranes
-
Irritate skin and hair
-
Corrode pipes and equipment
Installing a chlorine removal filter significantly improves overall water quality.
Why Remove Chlorine from Water?
Although chlorine helps kill bacteria, long-term exposure can lead to:
-
Dry skin and brittle hair
-
Strong chemical smell
-
Shortened lifespan of RO membranes
-
Reduced effectiveness of downstream treatment equipment
For industrial systems, chlorine can seriously damage RO membranes and ion exchange resins.

How a Chlorine Removal Filter Works
Most chlorine removal filters use:
1️⃣ Activated Carbon Filtration
Activated carbon adsorbs chlorine and organic compounds through a physical and chemical process.
2️⃣ Catalytic Carbon (For Chloramine)
More effective when chloramine is present.
3️⃣ Multi-stage Systems
Often combined with sediment filtration for better performance.

Activated Carbon vs Catalytic Carbon
| Feature | Activated Carbon | Catalytic Carbon |
|---|---|---|
| Removes Chlorine | Yes | Yes |
| Removes Chloramine | Limited | Excellent |
| Cost | Lower | Higher |
| Application | Residential | Commercial/Industrial |
If your water contains chloramine, catalytic carbon is recommended.
