Including filter system and high-performance Ammonia filter.
If your Franjo home’s water tastes or smells off, ammonia (also known as ammonium in some forms) is one possible cause that shows up on routine tests. In water chemistry ammonia and ammonium shift depending on temperature and pH, and it can come from natural breakdown of organic material, certain treatment steps, or runoff. Many Franjo homeowners choose to treat this where the water enters the house so all faucets and appliances get the same improved water.
Beyond unpleasant taste and odor, ammonia and ammonium can complicate disinfection by contributing to chloramine issues and can limit the effectiveness of some filters if the wrong system is chosen. Because ammonia is dissolved, it won’t be removed by a basic sediment filter. For Franjo’s humid subtropical climate and the everyday needs of local homes, a whole-house system provides consistent treatment at every tap and helps avoid surprises in showers, laundry, and appliances.
The single most effective whole-house option for ammonia removal is a properly designed ion exchange system using a cation exchange resin. This media captures ammonium as water passes through, reducing what reaches your fixtures and appliances. Ion exchange operates differently than carbon — which is better for many tastes and odors but not the primary tool for dissolved ammonium — so choosing the correct resin type and sizing the tank for your Franjo household’s usage is essential for dependable results.
An ion exchange ammonia filter is typically installed at the main service line so all water in a Franjo home is treated. These systems require periodic maintenance—either regeneration or media replacement depending on the model—and protecting the resin with a sediment pre-filter helps prevent fouling and preserves flow. With the right configuration for your house, whole-house ion exchange offers a practical way to reduce ammonia and ammonium and make everyday water use more pleasant.
