Including filter system and high-performance Epichlorohydrin filter.
Epichlorohydrin is an industrial chemical that can occasionally be found in drinking water at low concentrations, often linked to treatment and distribution processes. Because it usually has no noticeable taste, smell, or color, Bascom residents wouldn’t detect it just by sampling their tap. Many families in and around Bascom prefer to limit everyday exposure to trace chemicals when practical, and a whole-house filtration approach treats water at every faucet instead of only at the kitchen sink.
When epichlorohydrin is considered a health-related concern rather than an aesthetic issue, it makes sense to consider how household water is used: cooking, brushing teeth, dishwashing and bathing all increase routine contact. For Bascom homes, targeted whole-house treatment can be installed without changing how you live—delivering treated water to showers, laundry and every sink so your family has greater confidence in daily water use. The aim is simple: consistent, cleaner water throughout the house sized to your household’s needs.
For a single-stage solution to reduce epichlorohydrin, a high-quality activated carbon filter is typically the most effective and practical choice for whole-house systems. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic contaminants as water moves through the media, lowering concentrations before the water reaches taps in Bascom homes. A correctly sized catalytic or premium carbon tank in a whole-house configuration provides the contact time and flow required for everyday use, treating water for showers, laundry and every sink rather than just a single point of use.
Strong performance depends on enough carbon media and an appropriate flow rate so water doesn’t rush through too quickly; that’s why whole-house carbon systems for Bascom properties are usually larger backwashing tanks or high-capacity cartridges instead of small sink filters. With a properly designed system you can reduce epichlorohydrin while improving overall water quality and consistency throughout your home.
