Including filter system and high-performance Epichlorohydrin filter.
Epichlorohydrin is an industrial chemical that can sometimes be found at low levels in drinking water, often related to materials and processes used during treatment and distribution. You probably wouldn’t detect it by taste or smell—tap water containing trace amounts usually looks and smells normal—so many Sunrise homeowners prefer proactive solutions to limit potential chemical exposure. A whole-house filter treats every faucet and appliance in your Broward County home, so the water you cook, bathe, and wash with is addressed at the source rather than only at the kitchen sink.
Because epichlorohydrin is considered a health-related contaminant rather than an aesthetic problem, it’s sensible to consider all the ways you come into contact with your water in Sunrise—from brushing teeth and preparing meals to showering and doing laundry. Targeted whole-house treatment can be installed without changing how your household operates, sized to handle hard municipal water common across much of South Florida. The aim is simple: deliver more confidence in your home’s water with a system designed for your family’s daily use.
For single-stage reduction of epichlorohydrin, a quality activated carbon filter is generally the most practical and effective choice for whole-house installations. Activated carbon removes many organic chemicals by adsorbing them as water flows through the media, helping to lower concentrations before water reaches taps and showers. In a whole-home setup serving Sunrise residences, a catalytic or premium activated carbon tank sized for household flow will provide the contact time needed for reliable performance throughout the house.
Good performance depends on having enough carbon media and an appropriate flow rate so water doesn’t pass through too quickly—especially important with hard municipal water in Broward County that can cause scale buildup if not managed. That’s why whole-house carbon units for Sunrise homes are typically larger backwashing tanks or high-capacity cartridges rather than small point-of-use filters. With proper design, you’ll reduce epichlorohydrin and improve overall water quality; Mr. Pure Water can help select the right whole-house activated carbon system for your plumbing, water use, and installation needs.
