It's my understanding that an ordinary water softener does not remove chlorine from water. A reverse osmosis or carbon filtration unit is needed to properly remove this chemical. Water softeners sold at big box stores and Sears use salt to soften the water. I believe that an additional filtration system would be needed to actually take care of the chlorine issue.
