Treatment Solutions for High Chlorine and Chloramine Levels
A swimming-pool smell, chemical taste, or noticeable odor from the tap can make otherwise clear water unpleasant to drink, cook with, or use around your home. In many cases, what you’re noticing is chlorine or chloramine used by the water provider during disinfection.
Christian Brothers A/C, Plumbing, & Electrical helps homeowners throughout the Phoenix Metro Area address unwanted chlorine and chloramine taste and odor. We can evaluate your water, determine where treatment will provide the most benefit, and recommend filtration based on your water quality and household needs.
Can Chlorine in My Water Cause Problems?
Chlorine and chloramine play an important role in keeping public water supplies disinfected. Even when the water meets drinking-water standards, some homeowners prefer to reduce the residual disinfectant once the water reaches their home.
The most noticeable problems are often related to taste and odor, which may include:
- Swimming-pool-like odor
- Chemical aftertaste
- Unpleasant-tasting ice
- Changes in coffee or tea
- Odor from hot water
- Chlorine smell at multiple fixtures
If these issues are present throughout your home, treating the water before it reaches individual fixtures can provide a more complete solution.
How We Address High Chlorine and Chloramine Levels
The right treatment depends on what’s in your water, how noticeable the problem is, and whether you want to improve water throughout your home or primarily at the kitchen sink. We start by identifying the concern and then match the treatment method to your water and your goals.
Testing gives us a clearer picture of your water before treatment equipment is selected. We can use the results along with your water source and household concerns to determine whether chlorine, chloramine, or another water quality issue needs to be addressed.
When chlorine or chloramine taste and odor are noticeable throughout your home, whole-home filtration can treat the water before it reaches your faucets and showers. Carbon filtration is commonly used for chlorine reduction, while chloramine may require specialized media, additional contact time, or filtration designed specifically for chloramine.
If your priority is better-tasting water for drinking, cooking, ice, coffee, and tea, a reverse osmosis system can provide targeted treatment at the kitchen sink. Reverse osmosis can also be paired with whole-home filtration when you want broader treatment throughout your home.
Get the Right Filtration for Your Water
There isn’t one filter that’s right for every chlorine or chloramine concern. The best approach depends on the disinfectant present, where you notice the problem, household water demand, and what you want the treatment system to accomplish.
We can help you determine what water treatment system or combination of systems makes the most sense for your home. We can also evaluate existing treatment equipment when filter or media replacement is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. The Phoenix Metro Area is served by multiple water providers, and water sources and treatment processes can vary by community. Your provider’s current water quality report can help identify how your local supply is disinfected and treated.
Seasonal conditions can affect the taste and odor of Valley water. Phoenix, for example, notes that seasonal algae in canals carrying surface water can cause noticeable taste and odor changes even after the algae itself is removed during treatment.
It may help improve chlorine taste and odor in water dispensed from your refrigerator, depending on the filter’s reduction claims. It will not address water at showers, bathroom faucets, or other fixtures throughout your home.
No. Filtration for chlorine or chloramine and treatment for hard water address different water quality problems. Chlorine filtration generally relies on carbon or other filtration media, while a water softener is designed to reduce hardness minerals such as calcium and magnesium.
Yes. Your plumbing or an existing filtration system can influence how your water tastes and smells. An overdue filter, poorly maintained treatment system, or conditions within your home’s plumbing may contribute to the problem, which is why it can be helpful to evaluate both the incoming water and existing equipment.

Santiago came today and fixed my plumbing needs. He was very professional and answered all my questions. Thank you Santiago and thank you Christian Brothers.Posted on Google Michelle FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Christian Brothers was awesome! Our air conditioner gave it's final death rattle in May. We interviewed several companies and got quotes from all. Christian Brothers seemed fairly priced, offered good warranties, and they were able to get it replaced quickly. I especially appreciated they were straightforward about the unit our house needed. They didn't try to sell us something that would require additional work to our ducts and they explained why more expensive units would be overkill. The information they gave me was actually very helpful in spotting people from other companies who were trying to sell me more expensive models that would also require re-ducting! We've had a very comfortable summer! 😊 If you're looking for a new unit, or just honest repair work, you should talk to this company and at least get a qoute.Posted on Google Janet SkubiszTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
