Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can sometimes be found in drinking water at very low levels without any noticeable taste or odor. You may also see it called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene; it’s commonly linked to dry-cleaning and industrial uses. Because it can enter home plumbing unnoticed, Brickyard homeowners benefit from knowing common sources and the typical ways water professionals address it so you can make a clear plan for protecting your household water.
PCE can transfer from water into the air inside your home during everyday activities, so exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. Tasks like showering, bathing, and running the dishwasher can increase contact with volatile organic compounds such as perchloroethylene. Whether your Brickyard home is on a public supply or a private well, testing practices and treatments differ — and realizing that is the first step toward deciding whether a whole-house solution makes sense for your family.
To lower perchloroethylene throughout the entire plumbing system, a whole-house activated carbon filter is generally the single most effective option. Quality carbon media adsorbs many VOCs, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank, and because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the point of entry helps cut what can off-gas during showers and other uses. In Brickyard homes this means cleaner water to every faucet and fixture, not just a single sink.
Sizing a carbon system correctly matters because contact time and flow rate determine how well perchloroethylene is removed. Whole-house carbon is typically placed where the main line enters your Brickyard home so it can protect bathrooms, the kitchen, and laundry at once. Adding a sediment prefilter can prolong carbon life by preventing early clogging, while the carbon stage does the primary removal for PCE; Mr. Pure Water can help match the right whole-house carbon setup to your household’s usage and plumbing layout.
