Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene can appear in water supplies at low levels and often goes undetected by taste or smell. Also called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene, this solvent is commonly linked to industrial and dry‑cleaning activities. While you might not notice it, it’s understandable to want to limit any solvent reaching every tap in a Blocker home. The first step is knowing possible sources and typical treatment approaches so you can decide what’s right for your household.
Because perchloroethylene can volatilize from water into indoor air, exposure isn’t limited to drinking—showers, baths, and dishwashing can all increase contact with VOCs. If your Blocker residence is on municipal water, testing and treatment practices can differ; private well owners carry the testing responsibility themselves. In either situation, treating water where it enters your home helps reduce both ingestion and the vapors released during everyday water use.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout a Blocker home, a whole‑house activated carbon system is typically the single‑filter solution that works best. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds including PCE/PERC as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene can off‑gas during showers and other uses, placing treatment at the point of entry helps lower what’s released into indoor air as well as what flows from fixtures—so every tap benefits, not just one sink.
Sizing matters: the effectiveness of carbon depends on contact time and flow rate, so a properly sized whole‑house carbon unit should be installed before your Blocker home’s plumbing branches. In many systems a sediment prefilter is added to protect the carbon bed from premature clogging, while the carbon stage provides the main perchloroethylene removal. Mr. Pure Water can assess your household water use and plumbing layout in Blocker to recommend the right whole‑house carbon system for your needs.
