Including filter system and high-performance Chromium-6 filter.
Chromium-6, also known as hexavalent chromium, is a dissolved form of chromium that can end up in tap water without any noticeable taste, smell, or color. Many Viking homeowners only discover it after seeing lab results or a water quality report, since it won’t announce itself at the faucet. It can be introduced to drinking water through industrial processes, manufacturing, or contact with chromium-containing materials — so knowing how it behaves and how it’s usually treated brings useful peace of mind for families in our area.
Because chromium-6 stays dissolved, a basic sediment or standard point-of-use filter won’t reliably remove it. Many Viking houses already use filters for chlorine taste or particulate reduction, but those solutions don’t necessarily target hexavalent chromium. Treating dissolved contaminants requires media designed to attract and retain them, and a whole-house system treats every tap, shower and appliance rather than depending on a single under-sink unit for daily protection.
The single whole-house filter type most commonly used for chromium-6 reduction is a catalytic activated carbon system tailored for chromium performance. This specialized carbon is formulated and configured to help convert and capture hexavalent chromium as water passes through the media, while also improving overall water quality throughout your Viking home. It’s important the carbon blend is selected specifically for chromium-6 effectiveness, not just general taste-and-odor carbon.
Contact time and flow rate are as important as the media in a properly sized whole-house catalytic carbon filter—especially in hard, humid Florida conditions like Viking’s, where scale and corrosion can affect plumbing and appliances. Mr. Pure Water designs systems to provide sufficient capacity and exposure time so dissolved contaminants, including chromium-6, are treated at the point of entry. That means every bathroom, kitchen and laundry line is protected with a low-maintenance, set-it-and-forget-it solution for many local homeowners.
