Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can occasionally appear in drinking water at low concentrations without any noticeable taste or odor. Often called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to industrial processes and dry-cleaning. Because it can enter a household water supply unnoticed, Allentown homeowners benefit from knowing the likely sources and the typical treatment approaches so they can keep this contaminant out of their taps.
Perchloroethylene is volatile, so it can move from water into indoor air during normal activities like showering, bathing, and washing dishes — meaning exposure in Allentown isn’t limited to drinking water alone. If your property uses municipal service, testing and treatment practices may differ from neighborhood to neighborhood; if you rely on a private well, testing is your responsibility. In either case, addressing PCE at the point where water enters your Allentown home provides the broadest protection for air and water in every room.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout an Allentown house, a whole-house activated carbon system is the most effective single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene can off-gas during everyday use, treating water at the point of entry helps limit what’s released during showers and other household activities, delivering cleaner water to every fixture in your home.
Correct sizing of the carbon tank matters for performance — contact time and flow rate determine how much PCE the media can capture. Whole-house carbon units are typically placed before the plumbing splits so bathrooms, laundry and the kitchen are all protected in an Allentown residence. A sediment prefilter can extend the life of the carbon by keeping particulates out of the bed, while the carbon stage performs the main perchloroethylene removal; Mr. Pure Water can help pick the right whole-house carbon system for your home’s layout and water use.
