Talk:Water conditioners

I removed "Those that remove chlorine." as a type of water conditioner because it is my understanding that any chemical that can convert chlorine to salt can also convert chloramine to salt. Some manufacturers just don't state that on their label because the product doesn't remove ammonia. If any chemists can prove otherwise it should be put back in. --Tash 03:41, 30 January 2009 (UTC)



Chloramine is two chemicals. So if a product claims to remove chloramine it needs to remove both chemicals surely? IMHO the product is telling a moral untruth in not mentioning that its 'removed the chloramine' and left the ammonia behind. The consumer thinks the product has made the water safe. When it's not.

All basic dechlorinators remove chlorine from chloramine so leave the ammonia behind. But then these products don't claim to remove chloramine either.

I've reworded the first type of conditioner to emphasize this point.
