Water Filters for Chloraminated Water

Most American and Canadian municipalities (including Winnipeg) have treated their water with chlorine to kill the bacteria and viruses behind waterborne diseases such as dysentery. But some (including Toronto) have recently opted to use chloramines to disinfect their water supplies, instead, since these more stable compounds of chlorine with ammonia are less likely to form carcinogenic trihalomethanes (THMs) when reacting to substances in the water. Chloramine is far more difficult to remove from water than chlorine, however: it won't simply evaporate away, and some remains even after boiling. OPUS has created several water purification systems to tackle that problem, using a new catalytic carbon filter: an advanced activated carbon product designed to adsorb (remove) both chlorine and chloramines.

The models with "Advantage" in their name are designed to remove the fluoride many municipalities add to their drinking water, as well; while the ones with "Freedom" in their name are intended either for water supplies which have not been fluoridated, or for people who would prefer to keep any fluoride which has been added to their water, there. The "AlkaPlus" models also have the virtue of adding health-promoting alkaline minerals to the water.
