Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is a solvent that can appear in water at low levels without any noticeable taste or odor. Also called PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to industrial and dry-cleaning activities. Because it can travel through plumbing unseen, Sanborn homeowners should know where it may originate and what treatment options are typically used to keep it out of household taps.
Perchloroethylene can move from water into the air inside your home, so inhalation during showering, bathing, or doing dishes is a route of exposure in addition to drinking. Whether your Sanborn residence is on a public system or a private well affects who handles testing, but in either case a whole-house strategy treats water where it enters the property and helps limit what escapes into indoor air during everyday use.
To reduce perchloroethylene at every faucet, a whole-house activated carbon system is usually the most effective single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as municipal or well water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating water at the point of entry in Sanborn also cuts down on what can be released into bathrooms and kitchens during normal use, so cleaner water reaches every fixture.
Sizing the carbon filter correctly matters because contact time and flow rate determine how well PCE is captured. Whole-house carbon is typically placed before the plumbing branches so it protects showers, laundry, and kitchen lines across the home. A sediment prefilter can be added in some homes to prolong the carbon’s effectiveness, while the carbon stage does the main removal work for perchloroethylene—Mr. Pure Water can help Sanborn homeowners choose the right system for their usage and plumbing layout.
