I have a RO unit with one sediment and two carbon blocks. I know my municipality uses chloramine. I noticed though my sediment filter gets extremely bad in only 3 months I am using .5 micron. I also currently use 1 micron and .5 micron carbon blocks. Will carbon blocks actually remove chloramine? Or I need special filter? The Bulk reef carbon block I have says it does remove it but block only lasts 3500 gallons thats what it says anyway and thats water going through it I am guessing I am 4:1 ratio which means I will get 875 gallons roughly before block goes bad.
currently my setup is 0.5 sediment, 1 micron carbon, 0.5 micron carbon, 99% spectrapure membrane and two DI cartridges.
My question is will it be better if I added another sediment?
I was thinking adding 1 micron sediment so I would have 1 micron sediment, 0.5 micron sediment, 1 micron carbon, 0.5 micron carbon. I would think would make my 0.5 sediment filter last longer. Thoughts?
