Including filter system and high-performance Chlorite filter.
Chlorite is a chemical byproduct that can appear in drinking water when chlorine dioxide is used to disinfect. It’s different from chlorine but can arise for similar reasons related to keeping systems free of microbes. Because chlorite stays dissolved, it may not change the smell, taste, or look of your tap water, so many Sunrise homeowners only become aware of it through utility notices or a water test.
If chlorite levels worry you, it’s understandable to want that extra peace of mind for drinking, cooking, and showering—especially in a Broward County home where hard water and scale can already stress plumbing and appliances. Simple pitchers or basic sediment cartridges usually won’t address dissolved chlorite. A whole-house system treats water at the point it enters your house so every faucet, shower and appliance in neighborhoods like Sunrise Lakes or Sawgrass gets consistent protection.
For reducing chlorite, the single most effective whole-house media is catalytic carbon. Unlike standard activated carbon, catalytic carbon is designed to promote chemical reactions on its surface that help convert and reduce certain oxidizing byproducts. Because chlorite is dissolved in the water, you need sufficient contact time and the proper media — a correctly sized catalytic carbon tank on the main line provides that treatment before water moves through the rest of your Sunrise home.
A whole-house catalytic carbon system is usually installed just after the main shutoff so it protects your plumbing, fixtures and daily water use without changing how you live. Pairing it with a sediment prefilter helps preserve the carbon bed in hard-water areas common to much of South Florida. With one properly configured tank, you avoid juggling multiple point-of-use filters or wondering which taps are treated—Mr. Pure Water can size and set up the system to meet your household flow and water-quality goals in Sunrise.
