Whole-House Chlorine Removal Systems

Melbourne’s town water is disinfected with chlorine (and chloramine in some networks) – good for keeping the mains safe, not so good for taste, skin, or the trihalomethane by-products it leaves behind. Aquarius installs whole-house chlorine removal systems – properly sized carbon and media filtration vessels fitted at the meter or tank – so every tap, shower and appliance in the home runs on chlorine-free water. We test the water after installation and guarantee the result: free chlorine reading low to zero at the tap.

We supply and install chlorine removal systems for homes and businesses across Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula and Geelong, and we can combine them with water softening or pH correction for copper problems in one compact installation.

Home Chlorine Reduction & Treatment Systems

Chlorine has been used as a general disinfectant in potable water supplies for many years but the majority of users do not really understand the presence of free chlorine in water except perhaps the taste and odour.

It has been a relatively inexpensive method of disinfecting the water supply to ensure that it is fresh, potable, supply (bacteria and cyst free) to the point of use.

Chlorine carries quite an effective residual meaning that the chemical (includes total free and combined chlorine) can travel some distance and remain quite active to ensure that the water does not become further contaminated as it is reticulated.

Unfortunately, the reaction to the organic and inorganic matter is where other chemical compounds form from that reaction, called Post Chlorine by Products.
