Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can appear in water in very small amounts without any noticeable taste or smell. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s frequently linked to industrial and dry-cleaning activities. Because it can travel through a water system unnoticed, many Bailey homeowners prefer to understand common sources and treatment options so they’re not surprised if it shows up at the tap.
Perchloroethylene can move from water into the air inside your house, so exposure isn’t limited to drinking—showering, bathing, and dishwashing can release volatile compounds. Whether your Bailey home is on municipal supply or a private well, testing schedules and treatments differ; well owners especially are responsible for testing. Taking a whole-house view helps address PCE where water first enters your home, reducing airborne and tap exposure for the whole family.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout your Bailey residence, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the most effective single-filter choice. Carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the point of entry also cuts down on what might be released during showers and other household uses, delivering cleaner water to every fixture rather than just one sink.
Sizing matters: contact time and flow rate determine how well a carbon filter captures PCE, so a correctly sized whole-house carbon system should be placed before your Bailey home’s plumbing branches to protect bathrooms, laundry, and kitchen lines. In many setups, a sediment prefilter helps prevent premature clogging, while the carbon stage performs the main removal of perchloroethylene. Mr. Pure Water in Bailey can recommend the right whole-house carbon solution based on your household’s water use and plumbing layout.
