Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite is a dissolved byproduct that can form when chlorine dioxide is used to disinfect water; it’s different from chlorine but may appear for similar treatment reasons. Because chlorite stays dissolved, it won’t necessarily alter the taste, smell, or appearance of your tap water, so many Runnymede homeowners first learn about it from a utility notice or a lab test. If you rely on a private well or live in parts of Florida where mineral or well-water issues are common, testing is the only way to know whether chlorite is present in your household supply.
Even if water seems fine, elevated chlorite can make people uneasy about cooking, drinking, and bathing at home. Families with sensitive members often choose to lower their exposure as a precaution. Typical pitcher filters and simple sediment cartridges usually won’t address dissolved chlorite reliably, so many Runnymede residents prefer a whole-house solution that treats water at the main line and delivers consistent protection to every faucet and shower.
The single most effective whole-house filter for chlorite is catalytic carbon. This media is designed to encourage reactions on its surface that reduce certain oxidizing byproducts better than standard activated carbon. Because chlorite is dissolved, you need sufficient contact time and the correct media to remove it consistently; a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank installed at the main water line provides that capacity before water reaches the rest of your Runnymede home.
A whole-house catalytic carbon system is typically placed after the main shutoff so it protects plumbing, fixtures, and appliances without changing daily routines. In humid subtropical Runnymede—where some homes also contend with mineral scale and occasional well-water concerns—a sediment prefilter can be paired ahead of the carbon to preserve performance, but catalytic carbon remains the primary stage for reducing chlorite.
