Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene can appear in small, undetectable amounts in household water, and you often won’t notice it by taste or smell. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, this solvent is commonly linked to industrial and dry-cleaning activities. For homeowners in Hurlburt Field who want peace of mind, it helps to know where perchloroethylene can originate and what treatment options are typically used to keep it from flowing to every tap in your house.
Because perchloroethylene is volatile, it can move from water into the air in your home during routine uses like showering, bathing, or running the dishwasher—so ingestion isn’t the only way you may be exposed. If your Hurlburt Field property is on municipal water, testing and treatment practices may differ from one provider to another; private well owners carry the testing responsibility themselves. In either situation, addressing the contaminant at your main water entry with a whole-house solution reduces what reaches faucets and the indoor air.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout a home, the most effective single-filter choice is a whole-house activated carbon system. High-quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC/tetrachloroethylene, as water flows through the tank. Because this chemical can volatilize during showers and other uses, treating it at the point of entry in Hurlburt Field homes helps lower both water and air exposure, delivering cleaner water to every fixture rather than just one sink.
Sizing matters: contact time and flow rate determine how well a carbon bed captures perchloroethylene. Whole-house carbon systems are typically placed before the plumbing branches so bathrooms, laundry, and the kitchen are protected simultaneously. In many installations a sediment prefilter is added to prolong the life of the carbon, while the carbon stage performs the main removal of PCE. Mr. Pure Water can help Hurlburt Field homeowners select and size the right whole-house carbon system for their household’s water use and plumbing layout.
