Including filter system and high-performance Chloramine filter.
Many water systems use chloramine as a long-lasting disinfectant to protect water as it moves through pipes. You may also see it called chloramines, since it can occur in several forms. While effective for disinfection, it can leave a slight chemical taste or odor and is often tougher to remove than free chlorine. Avalon homeowners commonly notice it in drinking water, showers, and laundry, where the treated-water character shows up most.
Chloramine can exist as monochloramine, dichloramine, or trichloramine, and those forms affect odor and how water feels on skin and hair. Everyday tasks like brushing teeth, making coffee, or bathing may seem less pleasant when residuals are stronger. If you want consistently improved water at each faucet in your Avalon home, treating the supply where it enters the house is an effective, practical strategy.
For a single-filter whole-house approach, catalytic carbon is generally the best choice to reduce chloramine. Unlike standard activated carbon, catalytic carbon is manufactured to break down chloramine more effectively on contact, making it well suited when chloramines act as a persistent disinfectant rather than a quickly dissipating chlorine. Installed as one tank with a primary media bed, a catalytic carbon unit treats water used for drinking, bathing, cooking, and laundry throughout Avalon homes.
A correctly sized catalytic carbon system provides the contact time needed for chloramine conversion and adsorption as water flows through your plumbing. That improves taste and odor and reduces the treated-water character caused by disinfectant byproducts. Because monochloramine, dichloramine, and trichloramine can behave differently, proper sizing and matching flow rates matter for reliable performance; Mr. Pure Water can help recommend a catalytic carbon whole-house setup that fits your Avalon household’s water use and plumbing.
