When washing filter socks in laundry machine then air drying do you guys worry about chlorine or chloramines getting into your tank water via dry socks?

I do not and Only wash mine in warm water- no bleach or soap and allow to air dry and doing this over 10 years
 
I wash mine with a little bleach and then soak in RO/DI water with some Prime before I reinsert them.
 
I wash my filter socks in my washing machine with bleach and an extra rinse the allow them to dry. No problems.

No, in fact I normally add about 25ml of bleach to the wash cycle to clean the socks.

Once rinsed and air dried any residual chlorine has evaporated
