Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can be present in water at low levels without you tasting or smelling it. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly tied to industrial and dry‑cleaning operations. Because it can enter plumbing quietly, Chain O'Lakes homeowners—whether on municipal supply or private wells—benefit from learning where it may originate and how water professionals typically treat it.
PCE can off‑gas from water during everyday tasks, so exposure isn’t limited to drinking — showers, baths, and dishwashing can all release volatile compounds into the air. In Lake County’s humid subtropical climate, indoor air and water interactions matter year‑round. Municipal testing practices vary and well owners around Chain O'Lakes are responsible for their own sampling, so many residents choose a whole‑house solution to address perchloroethylene at the point it enters the home.
A whole‑house activated carbon system is generally the single‑filter choice homeowners rely on to reduce perchloroethylene. High‑quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank, and treating tetrachloroethylene at the main shutoff helps limit what can volatilize during showers and other uses. For hard‑water homes around the Harris Chain of Lakes and nearby communities, a whole‑home carbon unit delivers treated water to every fixture, not just the kitchen tap.
Sizing matters: the carbon tank’s contact time and flow rate determine how effectively PCE is removed, so whole‑house carbon is typically placed before the home’s branch plumbing to protect bathrooms, laundry and kitchen lines alike. In Chain O'Lakes properties where groundwater brings sediment and hard‑water minerals, adding a sediment prefilter can prolong the carbon media’s life, while the carbon stage performs the main perchloroethylene removal. Mr. Pure Water can assess your usage and plumbing layout to recommend the right whole‑house carbon system for your home.
