Including filter system and high-performance Chlorine filter.
Many homeowners in Marathon notice a sharp, pool-like chlorine smell or a lingering aftertaste from their tap. Water utilities often add chlorine as a disinfectant to keep water safe as it travels through distribution lines, but some of that residual can remain in finished water and become noticeable at the faucet. When chlorine is detectable, it can make everyday cooking, drinking and bathing less pleasant.
You might notice a chlorine taste in cold water, ice, or drinks — often stronger when water has sat in pipes overnight. A chlorine odor tends to stand out in hot water and steamy showers, where the smell releases into the air. Some Marathon homeowners also report hair or skin feeling drier after bathing when disinfectant levels are higher. If you’d prefer water that smells and tastes more neutral throughout your house, reducing chlorine is a practical next step.
For whole-home chlorine control a single tank-style activated carbon filter is usually the best one-filter solution. Catalytic carbon excels at removing disinfectants, delivering strong chlorine reduction while maintaining good flow for showers, laundry and multiple fixtures common in Marathon homes. Unlike small under-sink cartridges, a properly sized whole-house carbon system treats incoming water before it reaches your plumbing, helping remove chlorine taste and chlorine odor at every tap.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house catalytic carbon filtration to reduce chlorine as water enters Marathon homes, improving taste and smell across kitchens, bathrooms and outdoor spigots. These systems adsorb chlorine on the carbon media as water flows through, without introducing added chemicals. Proper sizing is important—contact time and flow rate determine how well the system performs for showers, laundry and multiple fixtures—so a correctly configured system gives you more comfortable showers and cleaner-tasting water throughout your home.
