Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene can show up in household water without any telltale taste or odor, so Navy Point homeowners might not realize it’s present. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, this solvent is commonly linked to industrial and dry‑cleaning uses. When it reaches plumbing, it’s best treated before it circulates through a home’s faucets and appliances, so learning where it originates and how it’s normally managed is the first step.
Because PCE can transfer from water into indoor air during activities like showering, bathing, and dishwashing, exposure in a Navy Point house isn’t limited to drinking water alone. If you receive water from a public system, local testing and treatment practices differ; private well owners in the area carry the responsibility for testing. In either case, treating water where it enters the house helps reduce both ingestion and airborne exposure.
To lower perchloroethylene throughout a Navy Point home, 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 moves through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating it at the point of entry also cuts down on what can off-gas during showers and other water use, delivering cleaner water to every fixture.
Sizing matters: an appropriately sized whole-house carbon filter gives the contact time and flow rate needed to capture PCE effectively in Navy Point homes. These systems are usually placed before plumbing branches so bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry lines are all protected. A sediment prefilter can extend carbon life in some installations, while the carbon stage remains the main barrier against perchloroethylene — Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right whole-house carbon setup for your household and plumbing layout.
