Including filter system and high-performance Chlorine Dioxide filter.
Chlorine dioxide is a powerful disinfectant sometimes used to control microbes in drinking water systems. When levels are higher than desired, it can give tap and shower water a sharp chemical taste and noticeable odor. In Century, homeowners may also notice skin or hair feeling drier after bathing when that oxidizing smell is present. If your water suddenly seems harsher than it used to, chlorine dioxide is one of the possible causes worth investigating.
Because chlorine dioxide is reactive, it can create related byproducts as it moves through pipes and systems. Those secondary compounds can affect taste and smell even when the water looks clear, and you may notice them more in hot water or in fixtures where water sits. If you rely on bottled water for drinking but still smell chemicals throughout your house in Century, treating water at the point of entry can address odors and tastes in cooking, bathing, laundry, and general cleaning.
For whole-home reduction of chlorine dioxide, a catalytic carbon whole-house filter is usually the most effective single-filter choice. Carbon media is commonly used to reduce disinfectants and improve taste and odor, and catalytic carbon is designed to work better with certain oxidizing compounds. Installed at the main water line into your Century home, it treats every faucet and fixture without changing daily water use, delivering cleaner-smelling and better-tasting water throughout the house.
A correctly sized catalytic carbon system prioritizes contact time and sufficient media capacity—both important for steady chlorine dioxide reduction. It also saves you from maintaining multiple under-sink units or relying on pitchers that don’t help showers or laundry. Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house catalytic carbon filter that matches your Century home’s flow rate and water use. If you prefer to be sure before committing, we offer water testing to determine whether chlorine dioxide is likely causing the issues you’re experiencing.
