Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite can form as a byproduct when chlorine dioxide is used to disinfect water. It’s distinct from chlorine but can appear for similar reasons—practices used to keep water systems safe. Because chlorite stays dissolved, it often won’t alter the taste, smell, or appearance of your tap water, so Angel City homeowners usually first learn of it from a utility notice or a lab test.
If chlorite levels make you uneasy, it’s understandable to want cleaner water for cooking, drinking, and bathing in your Angel City home. Many families choose to reduce exposure for children or sensitive adults even when water looks fine. Simple pitcher filters or basic sediment cartridges usually won’t cut it; a single whole-house solution treats water at the point it enters your home so every faucet and shower receives the same treated supply.
The single most effective whole-house filter for chlorite is catalytic carbon. This media is designed to encourage reactions on its surface that help reduce certain oxidizing byproducts more effectively than standard activated carbon. Because chlorite is dissolved in water, the system needs sufficient contact time and the correct media—so a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank installed at the main line is the reliable way to treat Angel City water before it circulates through your plumbing.
A catalytic carbon whole-house system is usually placed after the main shutoff, protecting Angel City plumbing, fixtures, and everyday water use without changing household routines. Pairing it with a sediment prefilter can extend the carbon bed’s life when needed, but the catalytic carbon remains the primary stage for reducing chlorite. Installing one system means you won’t need separate point-of-use devices for each tap—Mr. Pure Water can assess your flow needs and recommend the right tank size and setup for your home.
