Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can appear in water at low concentrations without any obvious taste or smell, so many homeowners won’t notice it. Also called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to industrial and dry‑cleaning activities. When it’s present in your supply, you don’t want it running to every faucet in the house. A good first step is knowing possible sources and how water systems typically handle this contaminant.
Because PCE can transfer from water into indoor air during normal use, exposure isn’t limited to drinking — showering, bathing and dishwashing can all release volatile compounds like perchloroethylene. If you get water from Palm Beach County’s municipal supply, treatment and monitoring practices can differ; private well owners are responsible for testing. Taking a whole‑house view helps manage PCE right where water enters your Delray Gardens home.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout your house, a whole‑house activated carbon system is generally the most effective single‑filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many VOCs, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank, and treating tetrachloroethylene at the point of entry lowers what can volatilize during showers and other uses. The outcome is treated water at every fixture in your Delray Gardens home, not just at one sink.
Sizing a carbon filter correctly matters because contact time and flow rate determine how well PCE is captured. Whole‑house carbon is typically placed before the plumbing splits to protect kitchen, bathroom and laundry lines simultaneously. In hard water areas like Palm Beach County, adding a sediment prefilter can help prevent premature clogging of the carbon bed, while the carbon stage does the main removal work for perchloroethylene. Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right whole‑house carbon setup for your household’s usage and layout in Delray Gardens.
