Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite can form as a byproduct when chlorine dioxide is used to disinfect water. It’s different from chlorine but can appear for similar reasons—used to control microbes in the distribution system. Because chlorite is dissolved, it often won’t change the taste, odor, or appearance of water from your Bratt tap, so many homeowners only discover it through utility notices or a home water test.
If you’re uneasy about chlorite in your household water, it can affect how comfortable you feel drinking, cooking, or bathing. Some Bratt families decide to lower exposure for children or sensitive adults even when water seems normal. Standard pitcher filters and basic sediment cartridges usually won’t address dissolved chlorite, which is why a whole-house system that treats water at the point it enters your home provides consistent protection at every faucet and shower.
The single most effective whole-house filter for chlorite is catalytic carbon. This specially treated carbon promotes reactions on its surface that help reduce certain oxidizing byproducts more effectively than standard activated carbon. Because chlorite stays dissolved in water, the system needs adequate contact time and the correct media to work reliably—so a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank on the main line is the right way to treat water before it circulates through your Bratt home.
A catalytic carbon whole-house system is installed after your main shutoff to protect plumbing, fixtures, and everyday water use without changing household routines. It’s commonly paired with a sediment prefilter to preserve carbon performance, while the catalytic carbon remains the main stage for reducing chlorite. With one properly sized system, you won’t need multiple point-of-use devices or worry which taps are treated—Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right tank size and setup to meet your Bratt household’s flow needs and water goals.
