Including filter system and high-performance PCBs filter.
Polychlorinated biphenyls, commonly called PCBs, are industrial chemicals that persist in the environment and can turn up in water. You may hear about them from utility notices, neighborhood conversations in places like Lely Resort or Majors, or from private testing. PCBs were used in older electrical gear and manufacturing, and once they get into waterways they can be slow to break down and remain present at low levels for a long time.
Because PCBs are usually found at trace levels, they won’t change how your tap water looks, smells, or tastes. They can enter water through historic contamination, runoff, or disturbed sediments, so clear water—whether in Lely Golf Estates or Fiddler’s Creek—doesn’t guarantee they’re absent. For Lely households that use water year-round in our humid subtropical climate, a whole-house solution protects every use: cooking, bathing, laundry and more, not just a single faucet.
The single most effective whole-house filter for PCBs is an activated carbon system—typically catalytic carbon or carbon block specifically formulated for organic adsorption. PCBs are hydrophobic organic compounds, so they’re captured by carbon media rather than by sediment screens. As water flows through the carbon, polychlorinated biphenyls adhere to the media and are reduced before reaching your taps, while the system also helps remove other organic contaminants that travel the same paths.
To work well in Collier County homes, a carbon PCB filter needs sufficient media volume and contact time for your household flow, especially with Lely’s typically hard, mineral-rich groundwater and seasonal heavy use. A sediment pre-filter is commonly installed ahead of the carbon stage to prevent premature clogging, and routine media or cartridge changes are required because adsorption capacity is finite. Mr. Pure Water will size and recommend the right whole-house carbon setup for your Lely home so the system treats water at the point it enters your plumbing.
