Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can occasionally show up in drinking water without any noticeable taste or odor. You may also hear it called PCE, PERC, or tetrachloroethylene—names commonly linked to dry-cleaning and industrial uses. Because it can travel into household plumbing unseen, Richter Crossroads homeowners benefit from knowing the likely sources and how water systems typically handle it so you can make an informed plan for your family’s taps.
Exposure to PCE isn’t limited to swallowing water; it can transfer into indoor air during everyday activities like showering, bathing, and running the dishwasher. Whether your Richter Crossroads property is on a municipal supply or a private well, testing practices and treatment differ, and private well owners carry testing responsibility. Taking a whole-house perspective helps treat perchloroethylene at the point it enters your plumbing, reducing both ingestion and airborne exposure around the home.
To treat perchloroethylene throughout a Richter Crossroads home, the most effective single-filter solution is a whole-house activated carbon system. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water moves through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the main entry reduces what can be released during showers and other household uses, delivering cleaner water to every fixture rather than just one sink.
Sizing and flow rate matter for carbon filters—adequate contact time improves PCE removal—so whole-house carbon is commonly placed at the point where water enters Richter Crossroads homes to protect bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry lines simultaneously. In many systems a sediment prefilter is added ahead of the carbon to prevent premature clogging, while the carbon stage performs the primary removal of perchloroethylene. Mr. Pure Water can help select and install the right whole-house carbon system for your household’s water use and plumbing layout.
