Including filter system and high-performance Giardia filter.
Giardia is a tiny parasite that can enter water supplies as hardy cysts; you may see it called Giardia intestinalis or Giardia lamblia. Because these organisms are microscopic, they won’t change your water’s taste, smell, or appearance, yet they can travel through plumbing into your home. Many homeowners here in Imperial Point and greater Broward County choose to add protection where water first comes in so the entire house is defended.
Contamination can occur through compromised pipes, cross-connections, or stormwater runoff that challenges treatment systems. Even with municipal treatment common to coastal South Florida, some households prefer an extra barrier—especially families or anyone sensitive to water quality. A whole-house solution treats every shower, faucet, and appliance the same, offering consistent protection throughout Imperial Point and nearby neighborhoods like Coral Ridge and Knoll Ridge.
The single best whole-house option for tackling Giardia is a cyst-rated absolute membrane filter. These filters act as a physical barrier, using very fine pores to strain out Giardia cysts instead of relying on chemicals. When sized correctly for your home’s flow needs, an absolute membrane can protect multiple fixtures at once and provide continuous coverage without weak points.
For optimal performance in an Imperial Point home, install the membrane filter on the main service line so all incoming water passes through it. Success depends on choosing the proper micron rating and keeping the system maintained so flow and protection remain steady; in moderate-hardness water like ours, a prefilter upstream often helps by capturing larger sediment and reducing scale buildup on the membrane. Mr. Pure Water can assess your plumbing and household demand to recommend the right cyst-rated membrane and prefiltration setup.
