Including filter system and high-performance 6:2 FTS filter.
6:2 FTS is a type of PFAS that can enter drinking water when products or firefighting foams reach the environment and migrate into water sources. You won't always detect it by taste, smell, or appearance, so it often comes to light only after testing or a notice about water quality. Because this compound is persistent and travels with water, many Ward homeowners choose treatments at the point of entry. A whole-house system treats water used for showering, cooking, laundry and every tap in the home, giving broad protection across daily uses.
When people in Ward talk about unhealthy levels of 6:2 FTS, the concern is usually reducing overall exposure rather than fixing a visible or cosmetic problem. Like other PFAS, 6:2 FTS is chemically stable and can be harder to remove than many routine contaminants, especially at low concentrations. That makes the treatment choice important—standard carbon cartridges are not all equal. The smartest first move is to test your water and then pick a proven PFAS-focused whole-home solution that treats water entering the house.
For whole-house reduction of 6:2 FTS, the most effective single-filter option is a high-capacity activated carbon system designed for PFAS. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic compounds to its surface, and PFAS-specific carbon media are selected and sized to maximize contact time and effectiveness. A point-of-entry tank placed where water comes into the house treats every faucet and shower without needing multiple under-sink units, and it reduces the maintenance overhead of several small filters with limited media volume.
Because PFAS such as 6:2 FTS are sensitive to flow rate and contact time, correct sizing matters as much as the media choice. A whole-home activated carbon filter should be sized for your household's demand so water flows slowly enough through the media for adsorption to work. Regular media replacement is important because carbon has finite capacity as it captures contaminants. Mr. Pure Water can help Ward homeowners choose and size a PFAS-focused whole-house carbon system to meet your home's needs and filtration goals.
