Including filter system and high-performance ADONA filter.
ADONA is a synthetic chemical often discussed with other PFAS compounds and may appear in drinking water. Many Bertha homeowners first hear about it from utility notices, local news, or private well testing. Though it’s grouped with PFAS, ADONA is a distinct molecule and sometimes needs a specific treatment strategy. If ADONA is on your mind, it’s helpful to know where it can come from and what homeowners typically do to address it in the house.
Because ADONA can originate from industrial uses, it can reach water supplies and remain for long periods without altering taste, smell, or appearance—so you won’t detect it by sensory signs alone. That’s why testing and targeted filtration matter for Bertha properties, especially where residents rely on groundwater. A whole-house approach treats every outlet, giving protection beyond just the kitchen tap.
The most common single-filter choice for reducing PFAS compounds such as ADONA in whole-house systems is a high-capacity activated carbon filter. Granular activated carbon (GAC) offers extensive internal surface area to adsorb trace organic chemicals as water passes through. When properly sized for your home’s flow, a GAC whole-house unit treats water used for showering, laundry, cooking, and drinking—important in Bertha where limestone-influenced groundwater often means hard water and scaling that can affect appliances. Correct sizing ensures adequate contact time and filter capacity for best performance.
Whole-house carbon filters are usually placed at the main water entry so treatment is automatic and doesn’t change daily routines. To maintain effectiveness, the carbon media must be replaced on a recommended schedule based on water use and contaminant load. For Bertha homes on well water, adding a sediment prefilter ahead of the carbon helps prevent clogging and uneven flow through the media—especially important with hard, mineral-rich groundwater. Mr. Pure Water can size and install a whole-house activated carbon system to fit your plumbing and local water conditions so ADONA reduction is consistent throughout your home.
