Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite is a chemical byproduct that can appear in drinking water when utilities use chlorine dioxide for disinfection. It’s distinct from chlorine, though it may arise for similar treatment reasons, and because chlorite is dissolved it often won’t alter taste, odor, or appearance at the tap. Many Pelican Bay homeowners first hear about chlorite from a municipal report or a private water test, especially here in Broward County where most coastal systems are managed by local utilities.
If you’d rather lower chlorite levels for peace of mind—whether for cooking, drinking, or showering—a whole-house solution is a practical choice. Point-of-use pitchers and basic sediment filters typically can’t address dissolved byproducts reliably, and in hard-water areas like much of coastal Broward they can foul more quickly. Treating water at the main line in a Pelican Bay home gives consistent protection to every faucet, shower, and appliance without changing daily routines.
The single most effective whole-house filter type for chlorite is catalytic carbon. Unlike standard activated carbon, catalytic carbon is designed to encourage reactions on the media surface that help reduce certain oxidizing byproducts. Because chlorite is dissolved, effective reduction depends on sufficient contact time and the right media—so a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank installed at the main line is the recommended approach for reliable treatment in Pelican Bay homes.
A catalytic carbon whole-house system is usually placed after the main shutoff to protect plumbing, fixtures, and appliances across the house without altering how you live. Pairing it with a sediment prefilter can help in hard water conditions common to coastal Broward, keeping the carbon bed performing well over time; the catalytic carbon remains the key chlorite-reduction stage.
