Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can sometimes be present in drinking water without any noticeable taste or odor. Also listed as PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to dry-cleaning and other commercial uses. Because it can travel into household plumbing unnoticed, Old Town homeowners benefit from knowing typical sources and how utilities or private wells might handle treatment—starting with a plan to identify potential entry points and options for removal.
Perchloroethylene can move from your water into indoor air during normal activities, so exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. Everyday tasks in an Old Town home — showers, baths, and dishwashing — can release volatile organic compounds like PCE into living spaces. Whether your water comes from a municipal system or a private well in the area, testing practices differ, and many homeowners choose a whole-house solution to address contamination at the point where water enters the property.
To remove perchloroethylene throughout a residence, a whole-house activated carbon system is usually the best single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many VOCs, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank, and treating tetrachloroethylene at the main supply reduces what can volatilize during showers and other water use. Installed at the point of entry, this approach delivers treated water to every faucet and fixture in your Old Town home rather than treating only one tap.
Sizing the carbon filter correctly is key because contact time and flow rate determine how effectively PCE is captured. Whole-house carbon systems are typically placed before the home's plumbing splits so they protect bathrooms, laundry, and kitchen lines in Old Town homes. A sediment prefilter can extend the life of the carbon by preventing premature clogging, while the carbon stage performs the main perchloroethylene removal; Mr. Pure Water can recommend the right whole-house carbon setup for your household’s usage and plumbing layout.
