Including filter system and high-performance Enteric Viruses filter.
Enteric viruses are tiny germs that can get into water when human or animal waste reaches a source. Because they’re invisible, water in a Peck home can appear clear yet still carry risk. While these viruses are often associated with private wells, flooding, or breaks in distribution systems, any household in Peck can benefit from knowing about the issue. If you’re worried, having your water tested is the best way to determine whether enteric viruses are a concern for your situation.
Unlike obvious taste or odor issues, viral contamination can’t be detected by sight or smell and may fluctuate with conditions upstream. That unpredictability leads many Peck homeowners to choose treatment where water enters the residence so every faucet, shower and appliance receives consistent protection. Treating at the main line removes the guesswork of relying on a single tap-based filter.
For enteric viruses, the most effective single whole-house option is ultraviolet (UV) disinfection installed on the main water line. UV systems in Peck homes inactivate microorganisms as water flows past a high-intensity lamp inside a sealed chamber, delivering protection to every gallon without altering taste. A correctly sized UV unit is matched to your home’s flow rate so it keeps disinfecting effectively even during peak water use.
UV performance relies on proper installation and adequate pretreatment because cloudy water, sediment, or staining minerals can block UV light. That’s why UV is typically paired with a sediment prefilter to keep the chamber clear and maintain steady flow for Peck households. Regular upkeep—periodic lamp replacement and cleaning the quartz sleeve—is also needed. When installed and maintained correctly, a UV system gives a simple, chemical-free whole-house approach to addressing viral concerns.
