Including filter system and high-performance Chlorine filter.
Many Florida homeowners notice chlorine as a sharp, pool-like smell or a lingering aftertaste at the tap. Water utilities commonly add chlorine as a disinfectant to control germs while water travels through distribution lines, and some residual can remain in finished water at the faucet. In Westlake and elsewhere in Palm Beach County, that lingering disinfectant can make everyday drinking, cooking, and bathing less pleasant.
You might notice a chlorine taste in cold water, ice, or drinks, especially if water has sat in pipes for a bit. A chlorine odor often becomes more noticeable in hot water and steamy showers as the scent is released into the air. Some Westlake homes also report hair or skin feeling drier after bathing when disinfectant levels are more apparent. If you’d like your household water to smell and taste more neutral throughout the house, reducing chlorine is a common and effective step.
For whole-home chlorine control, a single tank-style activated carbon filter is usually the best one-filter solution. Catalytic carbon is particularly effective at removing disinfectants, delivering strong reduction of chlorine while maintaining good flow for showers, laundry, and multiple fixtures around a Westlake house. Unlike small under-sink cartridges, a correctly sized whole-house carbon system treats water before it reaches your plumbing, addressing chlorine taste and chlorine odor at every faucet and shower.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house catalytic carbon filtration to reduce chlorine as water enters Westlake homes, improving taste and smell throughout kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spigots. These systems adsorb chlorine as water passes through the carbon media without adding chemicals. Proper sizing is important—contact time and flow rate affect performance, especially in hard-water areas of Palm Beach County—so the right setup delivers more comfortable showers and cleaner-tasting water across your entire home.
