The ammonia gets to the plants with all of them. The mechanism by
which ammonia is "removed" is basically identical with these products
(it is not removed, only bound). The main difference is we all use
slightly different compounds to carry this out. For the record, Prime
takes care of chlorine, chloramine, and ammonia (and treats the most
gallons per dollar ;-) ;-)
