Including filter system and high-performance Chlorine filter.
Many homeowners around Hurlburt Field notice a sharp, pool-like chlorine smell or a lingering aftertaste at the tap. Water utilities commonly add chlorine as a disinfectant to protect water as it travels through distribution lines, and some of that disinfectant can remain in finished water and be apparent in your faucet water. While chlorine helps keep water safe in the system, its presence can make everyday drinking, cooking, and bathing less enjoyable.
In Hurlburt Field homes, a chlorine taste can appear in cold drinks, ice, and water that's been sitting in pipes for a while. That pool-like flavor or a faint chlorine odor often becomes more noticeable with hot water—especially during steamy showers—when smells release into the air. Some residents also report hair and skin feeling drier after bathing when disinfectant levels are higher. If you prefer a more neutral, pleasant water experience throughout your house, reducing chlorine is a common and effective step.
For whole-home chlorine control in Hurlburt Field properties, a single tank-style activated carbon filter is usually the best one-filter solution. Systems using catalytic carbon are particularly effective at removing disinfectants, giving reliable chlorine reduction while maintaining good flow for showers, laundry, and multiple fixtures. Unlike small under-sink cartridges, a correctly sized whole-house carbon system treats water before it reaches your plumbing, so chlorine taste and chlorine odor are addressed at every tap instead of just one sink.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house catalytic carbon filtration for Hurlburt Field homes to reduce chlorine as water enters the house, improving taste and odor across kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spigots. These systems remove chlorine by adsorbing it into the carbon media as water passes through—no added chemicals required. Proper sizing is important because contact time and flow rate determine how well the system performs during typical household use. With the right equipment and setup, you’ll notice better-tasting water and more comfortable showers throughout your home.
