Including filter system and high-performance Giardia filter.
Giardia is a tiny parasite that can enter water supplies as hardy cysts; you may also hear it called Giardia intestinalis or Giardia lamblia. Because the organisms are invisible, water with cysts won’t necessarily taste, smell, or look different, which is why many Astor Farms homeowners choose added protection at the point where water enters their house.
Everyday risks—compromised piping, cross-connections, or runoff—can let contaminants into a system, and even treated water sometimes prompts people to add another layer of safety. A whole-house filter gives consistent protection to every shower, faucet, and appliance in your Astor Farms home, a practical upgrade for families who want more control over what travels through humid subtropical Central Florida plumbing.
For a single, highly effective whole-house option against Giardia, choose a cyst-rated absolute membrane filter. These units remove Giardia cysts by physically straining them out rather than depending on chemicals, and when sized for your home’s flow they provide continuous coverage across multiple fixtures without gaps.
Installed on the main water line serving your Astor Farms property, a whole-house membrane filter acts as a true barrier when fitted with the correct micron rating and kept maintained so flow stays steady. Many Central Florida homes add a sediment prefilter upstream to reduce scale and protect the membrane, but the membrane stage is the critical defense against Giardia intestinalis and Giardia lamblia—Mr. Pure Water can help size and install the right system for your plumbing and household demand.
