Neutralize chloramines in tap water

[watersplit]

Hi
I want to remove chloramines from tap water and I read it's possible to do by adding ascorbic acid in the water. Here is the source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloramination#Removing_monochloramine_from_water

So I was wondering what substances are the chloramines being changed into (the by-products) during the process?
And how long time would it take to neutralize 1L of water (adding maximum 100mg ascorbic acid, which is more than enough)? The page of the provided address says it takes 1-2 days but it doesn't say how much water. Perhaps the amount of water doesn't matter?

Have you checked that you have chloramines in water, or are you still chasing things you don't understand?

I have not performed any analysis on the water, but it is described in the website of the municipal water treatment plant that a small amount of chloramine is added.

How are you going to calculate how much neutralizer you need if you don't know how much is in it?

How do you know this is even something worth doing if you don't know how much is in it?

That isn't what it says.

And you assume they don't know what they doing?

From your IP it seems like you live in one of the countries with safest drinkable water in the world. Traces are there to keep the water safe and to kill pathogens, and their levels are selected low so that the dose is not dangerous for people. I told you earlier: you won't make your water better than people that trained for many years do it for you.
