Including filter system and high-performance PCBs filter.
PCBs are industrial chemicals that persist in the environment and can turn up in drinking water supplies. Also called polychlorinated biphenyls, these compounds were commonly used in older electrical gear and various manufacturing processes. Once they reach waterways they can be slow to break down and may remain at low levels for long periods. Gordon homeowners often hear about PCBs through utility notices, neighbors, or independent water testing and want clear, local guidance.
Because PCBs usually occur at very low concentrations, you won’t detect them by sight, smell, or taste in tap water. They can enter water sources through legacy contamination, disturbed sediments, or runoff that carries pollutants into surface waters. Even when your water appears clean, questions about long-term exposure and everyday household use are understandable. A whole-house filtration approach gives Gordon families protection for cooking, bathing, laundry and all indoor water uses rather than just one faucet.
The most effective single-filter choice for a whole-house system to address PCBs is a high-quality activated carbon filter, typically using catalytic carbon or carbon block media engineered for strong adsorption. Because PCBs are hydrophobic organic compounds, they’re better captured by carbon media than by simple sediment filters. As water flows through the carbon bed, polychlorinated biphenyls adhere to the carbon surface and are reduced before reaching your taps, while the system also helps cut other organic contaminants that travel the same pathways.
To work reliably in a Gordon home, an activated carbon PCB filter needs sufficient media volume and contact time for your household flow, so it can treat water during peak demand. Installing a sediment pre-filter upstream can protect the carbon from premature clogging, but the carbon stage does the main removal work for PCBs. Proper sizing and routine media or cartridge replacement are essential because adsorption capacity is finite; Mr. Pure Water can size and install a whole-house carbon system matched to your home to address PCBs where water enters your plumbing.
