Including filter system and high-performance Chlorine Dioxide filter.
Chlorine dioxide is a powerful disinfectant sometimes used in distribution systems to control microbes. When levels are higher than people prefer, it can leave a noticeable chemical taste or oxidizing odor at the tap and in the shower; some Lakewood Park residents also report drier-feeling skin or hair after bathing. In our humid subtropical climate and hard water conditions on the Treasure Coast, that sharper smell and sensation can be more obvious—so if water at your home feels harsher than usual, chlorine dioxide is one possible cause to investigate.
Because chlorine dioxide is reactive, it can create related byproducts that affect taste and smell even when water looks clear. Those odors are often more noticeable in hot water or after water has sat in pipes, which is why whole-house odor can persist even if you drink bottled water. Homeowners in Lakewood Park often find that treating water at the point of entry—rather than only at a single sink—improves the water used for cooking, bathing, laundry, and other daily tasks across the entire house.
To reduce chlorine dioxide throughout a home, a whole-house catalytic carbon filter is generally the single best choice. Catalytic carbon media is designed to handle oxidizing disinfectants and to reduce related taste and odor problems more effectively than standard carbon in many cases. Installed on the incoming water line, it delivers treated water to every faucet and fixture in Lakewood Park homes without changing how you use water day to day, so the whole house benefits—not just one sink.
A correctly sized catalytic carbon system prioritizes contact time and adequate media capacity for steady chlorine dioxide reduction, which is important in hard-water areas like the Treasure Coast where scale can also be a concern. This approach avoids the upkeep of multiple under-sink units or pitchers that don’t address showers and laundry. Mr. Pure Water can help you pick a whole-house catalytic carbon filter that matches your Lakewood Park home’s flow rate and water use, and we can arrange a water test if you’d like confirmation before installing equipment.
