Including filter system and high-performance 8:2 FTS filter.
8:2 FTS belongs to the PFAS family—long-lasting synthetic chemicals that can end up in drinking water. Franjo homeowners may first learn about these contaminants through news reports, water testing, or utility disclosures. Because 8:2 FTS doesn’t change the taste, smell, or look of water, you can’t rely on your senses to know if it’s present; if you’re worried, the sensible next step is selecting treatment that targets PFAS broadly, including 8:2 FTS.
If 8:2 FTS is in your household supply, it can be used for drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry throughout your home. Many under-sink or countertop options only protect a single faucet, leaving showers and appliances exposed. A whole-house system installed at the point where water enters a Franjo home treats every outlet so you know all taps are covered, and it also helps reduce wear on plumbing and appliances by treating the incoming supply for PFAS like 8:2 FTS.
The most effective single-filter whole-house solution for reducing 8:2 FTS is a PFAS-rated activated carbon system using high-capacity granular activated carbon (GAC). Activated carbon adsorbs many organic contaminants and is commonly used for PFAS reduction; because PFAS compounds behave differently, effectiveness comes from having sufficient carbon media and proper contact time rather than a small cartridge. For Franjo homes, a correctly sized whole-house GAC unit is designed to handle typical household flow without relying on a single-sink filter.
A whole-house GAC filter is mounted on your main water line so water is treated before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances in Franjo. Its performance depends on flow rate, water chemistry, and how long the carbon has been in service, so choosing adequate media capacity and scheduling timely media replacement matter. These systems are often paired with a sediment prefilter to prevent channeling and extend carbon life; for consistent reduction of PFAS such as 8:2 FTS, pick a unit built for whole-house flow and regular maintenance.
