Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite is a disinfection byproduct that can form when utilities use chlorine dioxide to treat water. It’s different from chlorine itself, but it can appear for similar reasons—part of keeping systems free of microbes. Because chlorite dissolves into the water, it often doesn’t change taste, smell, or appearance, so many Fairvilla homeowners first learn about it through a utility notice or a lab test rather than by sensory clues.
If you’d rather limit chlorite in your household water, it can help with peace of mind around cooking, drinking, and bathing — especially in homes with sensitive family members. Simple pitchers and basic sediment cartridges usually won’t remove chlorite effectively. For Fairvilla houses on moderately hard municipal water from the Orlando area, a whole-house solution treats water once at the entry point so every faucet, shower, and appliance receives the same treated water.
The single most effective whole-house filter type for chlorite is catalytic carbon. This media is specifically manufactured to encourage reactions on the carbon surface that reduce certain oxidizing byproducts better than standard activated carbon. Because chlorite is dissolved, the system needs proper media and contact time — a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank installed at the main line provides reliable treatment before water travels to fixtures throughout your Fairvilla home.
Typically installed after the main shutoff, a whole-house catalytic carbon system protects plumbing, fixtures, and daily water use without changing how you live. In areas like Fairvilla where municipal water is moderately hard, pairing the carbon tank with a sediment prefilter helps prevent premature clogging and keeps the carbon bed working well. With one whole-house system you won’t have to manage point-of-use devices at individual taps — Mr. Pure Water can size and configure the catalytic carbon tank to match your home’s flow needs and water goals.
