Including filter system and high-performance Microplastics filter.
Microplastics are tiny plastic fragments that can enter household water from breakdown of larger plastics, fibers shed from synthetic fabrics, and wear of packaging and goods. Because they’re so small, they often don’t affect taste or odor and can be easy to miss. Many Bertha homeowners install whole-house solutions for reassurance about what’s coming from every faucet.
Even when your tap water in Bertha looks clear, tiny microplastics can remain suspended as fine particles. They also travel with sediment and other debris, especially after plumbing work or shifts in source water, and can settle in appliances and pipes. Because microplastics come in many sizes and shapes, the most reliable approach is physical removal rather than treating taste or odor. A whole-house filter protects every use of water — drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry — so you’re covered throughout the home.
For capturing microplastics, a whole-house sediment filter with a fine micron rating is typically the most effective single-filter option because it strains particles out of the supply. As Bertha homes draw water through the media, suspended solids are trapped before they reach faucets, showers and water-using appliances — which also helps where hard, limestone-influenced groundwater causes scale and particulate buildup. Choosing the right filter helps remove particles without sacrificing steady household water pressure.
Performance depends on selecting the appropriate micron size and a sediment cartridge built for high flow and strong dirt-holding capacity. Finer microns catch smaller fragments, while a higher-capacity cartridge means fewer replacements — useful in humid Florida conditions where sediment and scale can accompany microplastics. A dedicated whole-house sediment stage helps keep plumbing and appliances cleaner; Mr. Pure Water can size the filter and pick the right micron rating for your Bertha home so filtration doesn’t compromise everyday flow.
