Including filter system and high-performance 4:2 FTS filter.
4:2 FTS is one member of the PFAS family that can travel through the environment and end up in drinking water. Residents of New Harmony often first hear about it from a utility announcement, a private well test, or a real estate water report. Because 4:2 FTS has no color or taste, many homeowners choose to take proactive steps to limit exposure and feel confident in the water they use for cooking, drinking, and bathing. When you’re addressing it, look for treatment options built to reduce PFAS, not just to improve taste or remove sediment.
Since 4:2 FTS belongs to the broader group of fluorinated compounds, it’s frequently mentioned alongside other PFAS on lab reports. Typical carbon taste filters, standard water softeners, and basic sediment cartridges may not reliably remove PFAS. The most dependable strategy for New Harmony homes is whole-house treatment at the main water entry so every faucet and appliance is protected, rather than depending solely on a single under-sink unit for peace of mind.
To reduce 4:2 FTS across an entire house, the most effective single option is a high-capacity granular activated carbon (GAC) system sized and designed for PFAS removal. Activated carbon can adsorb many PFAS compounds, but how well it works depends on having sufficient carbon volume and contact time as water moves through the tank. For whole-home reduction in New Harmony, a full-size backwashing or tank-based GAC unit generally performs better than small inline cartridges because it offers the media volume and flow characteristics needed for meaningful, lasting treatment.
A whole-house GAC system is fitted on the main water line so showers, sinks, laundry and the kitchen all receive treated water. These systems are usually paired with a prefilter to remove sediment first, protecting the carbon bed from premature clogging and channeling. For contaminants like 4:2 FTS, regular maintenance matters as much as correct installation—exhausted carbon won’t continue adsorbing PFAS. Mr. Pure Water can help New Harmony homeowners select and size the right carbon system for their household flow and water conditions to ensure reliable, house-wide protection.
