Reverse Osmosis with chloramines

[verbal]

Does an RO unit need a special configuration for a water supply with Chloramines?

I got one at the catfish convention, but the manual says it is only warranted on a non-chlorinated water supply.

It is the ValueLine brand. Here is there most recent manual:

Yes, you do need a special confguration to remove chloramines.

Here's one place that offers the upgrade kit: http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/bulk-...erse-osmosis-systems/chloramines-systems.html

You can swap out one of the micron filters for a charcoal stage (canister insert) or add another stage for same to your existing system. Or you can just treat the end-product with de-chlor which is probably what I would/will do if/when I had/have it to do over again. BRS provides great phone support and has really good video tutorials on their site but they are about 30-50% more expensive for most items than their online competition.
