Including filter system and high-performance ADONA filter.
ADONA is a manufactured chemical sometimes grouped with PFAS compounds and it can show up in drinking water. Old Town homeowners usually first hear about it through utility notices, local reporting, or private well test results. Even though ADONA is often discussed alongside other PFAS, it’s a distinct compound and may need a specific filtration approach. If you’re in Old Town and have questions about ADONA, knowing its sources and common remedies is a helpful first step.
Because ADONA can come from certain industrial uses, it can enter water supplies and remain for long periods without changing taste, smell, or appearance. That means you can’t rely on senses to spot it in an Old Town tap, which is why testing and targeted treatment are important. A whole-house system treats every faucet and shower, giving families across Old Town protection throughout the home rather than only at a single point.
For whole-home removal of PFAS compounds like ADONA, the most commonly chosen single filter is a high-capacity activated carbon unit. Granular activated carbon (GAC) offers a very large internal surface area that adsorbs many trace organic contaminants as water passes through. When sized correctly for your home’s flow, a whole-house GAC installation treats water used for bathing, laundry, and cooking throughout Old Town, so the reduction happens at every tap; proper contact time and adequate filter capacity are key to good performance.
A whole-house carbon filter is usually installed at the main water entry to your Old Town home so it works automatically with no change to daily routines. To maintain reliable ADONA removal the carbon media needs scheduled replacement based on how much water you use and what’s in it. If you rely on a private well, adding a sediment prefilter ahead of the carbon helps protect the media from clogging and channeling. Mr. Pure Water can size and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Old Town plumbing and water conditions so ADONA reduction is consistent across the house.
