Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can appear in drinking water at low levels without any noticeable taste or odor. Often called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to industrial processes and dry-cleaning operations. Because you won’t detect it by simply using the tap, Astor Farms homeowners benefit from knowing possible sources and typical treatment approaches so they can plan how to protect water that comes into their houses.
Perchloroethylene can transfer from water into the air inside your home during everyday activities, so exposure isn’t limited to drinking—showers, baths, and dishwashing can all increase contact with VOCs like PCE. In Central Florida communities such as Astor Farms, many properties rely on groundwater from the Floridan aquifer, and whether you’re on a public system or a private well, testing practices and treatments differ. Taking a whole-house perspective helps address contaminants at the point they enter your plumbing.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout your home, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the most effective single-filter choice. High-quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds—including PCE/PERC—as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the main entry point also lowers the amount that can off-gas during showers and other uses, delivering cleaner water to every faucet in an Astor Farms home.
Correct sizing matters for carbon filters because contact time and flow rate determine how effectively PCE is removed. Whole-house carbon systems are typically placed before plumbing branches so bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry lines are all protected. In many homes a sediment prefilter helps protect the carbon bed from early clogging, while the carbon stage does the primary removal of perchloroethylene. Mr. Pure Water will help Astor Farms homeowners select the right whole-house carbon system to match household water use and plumbing layout.
