Chlorine can be removed with a simple carbon filtration.
Chloramine CAN NOT be removed with carbon, even with a chloramine remover, the end result will be a small trace of ammonia.
You need to use a neutralizer such as prime or amquel.
To do this in the drip system, you will need an injector that mix the prime solutions with tap water.
I personally run the Dosmatic setup on mine becasue my local water source have both chlorine and chloramine. It drips 50 gallon per day on my 240
im at about 145 gallons a day, on my 450 gal..... its keeping my nitrates at 20ppmskynoch;1974482; said:How many gallons a day are you running?
