Don't think so. It's an AquaChek pool & spa test kit. You can see on the colour chart that it tests for 'free' chlorine. I'm assuming that since chloramine is chlorine combined with ammonia, it won't provide accurate indication of the presence of chloramine. However, since a carbon filter is supposed to separate the chlorine & ammonia, it may still be useful to check for traces of chlorine after your carbon stage. AquaChek has a web site so you could probably find more info there.
