Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can enter drinking water in trace amounts without any noticeable taste or odor. You may hear it called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene—names used most often in connection with dry-cleaning and other industrial uses. For Brookside homeowners, the first step is knowing the potential sources and how local treatment or filtration choices can limit its presence before it reaches your taps.
Because PCE can off-gas from water into indoor air, exposure in your home isn’t limited to what you drink; showering, bathing, and dishwashing can all release volatile compounds. Whether your Brookside residence is on municipal supply or a private well, testing and treatment practices differ, and private well owners have particular responsibility for testing. A whole-house system treats water at the point it enters your home, helping reduce both ingestion and inhalation routes of exposure.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout a Brookside home, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the best single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, addressing it at the point of entry also lowers what can be released during showers and other everyday water use, so every fixture receives cleaner water.
Sizing the carbon tank correctly is key—flow rate and contact time determine how effectively PCE is removed. Whole-house carbon is installed where the main line enters the home so it protects bathrooms, laundry, and kitchen plumbing at once. In Brookside, where hard water and limescale can also be a concern, adding a sediment prefilter may extend carbon life, while the carbon stage provides the primary perchloroethylene removal; Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right system for your layout and household needs.
