Frequently Asked Questions:

What are chloramines?
Chloramines are chemical compounds made of chlorine and ammonia. The type commonly used in drinking water disinfection is monochloramine, which is added at safe levels to kill germs while still being safe to drink.

What are the safe levels of chloramine in water?
Chloramine levels up to 4 milligrams per liter (mg/L) or 4 parts per million (ppm) are considered safe for drinking water. At these levels, harmful health effects are unlikely to occur.
