Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can appear in water in small, often undetectable amounts; you usually won’t notice it by taste or smell. It’s also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene and is commonly linked to dry-cleaning and certain industrial uses. For New Hope homeowners, the first step is knowing the potential sources and the typical treatment approaches so you can make a clear plan to keep that contaminant away from every tap.
Because PCE can transfer from water into indoor air, exposure in a New Hope home can come from more than just drinking—showering, bathing, and dishwashing can release volatile organic compounds like perchloroethylene. If your water comes from a municipal supply, treatment and testing practices may differ; if you rely on a private well, testing is your responsibility. Either scenario benefits from a whole-house strategy that treats contaminant entry before it reaches faucets and showers.
To reduce perchloroethylene through the entire plumbing system, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the best single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many VOCs, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, addressing it at the point of entry in your New Hope residence also helps lower what’s released during showers and other uses, delivering cleaner water to every fixture rather than only one sink.
Sizing the carbon filter correctly matters because contact time and flow rate determine how effectively PCE is captured. Whole-house carbon systems are typically placed before the plumbing branches so they protect kitchen, laundry, and bathroom lines across a New Hope home. A sediment prefilter can extend carbon life in some homes, but the carbon stage is the main workhorse for removing perchloroethylene—Mr. Pure Water can help pick the right whole-house carbon system for your household’s flow needs and layout.
