At Berkey Filters, our approach to removing Monochloramine and other Chloramines is centered on our Black Berkey Filter. This filter, which is made up of over six different media types, takes Chloramines out of the water using the activated carbon within it and intricate pores that are hard to get through. When byproducts are released from the chemical reaction caused by carbon, they are removed through Berkey’s Ion Exchange process, which attracts the byproducts with an ionic charge. The gravity flow feature slows all of these processes down, catching even more contaminants, bacteria and harmful metals.
Our test results show that over 99.9% of Chloramines are removed from the water using Black Berkey Elements and, if your water also has Chlorine in it, over 99.9% is removed using the Berkey system.
