![]() the only thing you have to remember is that you have to have enough carbon filtration to remove the chlorine so the only thing hitting your RO membrain is amonia. Chlorine will destroy a RO membrain in no time. so to answer the original question, No a RO will not remove chloramines, but the Carbon block filters ahead of it will.
I ran my set up as it was delivered and one year later I was replacign he membrain from Chlorine dammage. so I upgraded. I bought a new canister that held a 10x6 filter and got a graduated sediment filter with a 1 micron absolute filtration rating. then I passed the water through two carbon block filters, then to the RO membranes. now mine might have needed more filtration because it was over 300 gal per day so the factory filters couldn't handle the amount of water, but its better to be safe than sorry.

![]() the carbon breaks the bond between the chlorine and ammonia(chloramine) and removes the chlorine, the di resin removes the ammonia
