Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can appear in drinking water at low levels without any noticeable taste or odor. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to industrial activities and dry-cleaning operations. Because you won’t necessarily detect it by smell, Montura homeowners benefit from knowing common sources and how water systems typically address volatile organic compounds so you can plan the right protections for every tap.
PCE can transfer from water into the air inside your home during everyday tasks, so exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. Showers, baths, and dishwashing can release volatile compounds like perchloroethylene into indoor air. If you get service from a utility, testing and treatment practices vary; if you rely on a private well — common around Montura and Montura Ranch Estates — testing is your responsibility. A whole-house solution treats water at the point it enters the home, helping reduce both ingestion and airborne exposure.
To reduce perchloroethylene throughout the house, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the most effective single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the entry point also lowers the amount that can be released during showers and other uses, giving every fixture in your Montura home cleaner water.
Sizing is important: contact time and flow rate determine how well carbon captures PCE. Whole-house carbon systems are usually placed before the plumbing splits so bathrooms, laundry and kitchen lines are all protected. In areas with hard water like Montura, a sediment prefilter can help prevent early clogging of the carbon bed, while the carbon stage does the main removal of perchloroethylene. Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right whole-house carbon setup for your household use and plumbing layout.
