Chloramines Research

Chloramines are commonly found in pool water, as they are a byproduct of the disinfection process when chlorine is added to the water. While chlorine is necessary to kill harmful bacteria and viruses in pool water, it can react with organic matter, such as sweat and urine, to form chloramines. High levels of chloramines can cause skin and eye irritation, as well as respiratory problems, which is why it’s important to regularly test pool water for chloramines. Olympian Water Testing provides professional pool water testing services to help ensure that your pool water is safe and free from harmful levels of chloramines and other contaminants.
