Including filter system and high-performance Perchloroethylene filter.
Perchloroethylene is an industrial solvent that can sometimes show up in drinking water at levels you won’t detect by taste or smell. Known also as PCE, PERC, and tetrachloroethylene, it’s commonly linked to dry cleaning and other industrial uses. For Selman homeowners, the first step is recognizing where this contaminant can originate and how utilities and private wells typically handle treatment so you can decide on the right plan for your household.
Because perchloroethylene can off-gas from water into indoor air, everyday activities like showering, bathing, and running the dishwasher may increase exposure beyond just drinking. Whether your Selman residence is on a municipal supply or a private well, testing frequency and treatment differ, and private well owners are responsible for checking their water. A whole-house strategy treats water at the point it enters your Selman home, reducing what reaches taps and the air in your living spaces.
To lower perchloroethylene throughout the entire house, a whole-house activated carbon system is generally the best single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as your water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, treating at the home’s entry point in Selman also cuts down on what can be 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 removed. Whole-house carbon is typically placed before the plumbing branches so it protects Selman bathrooms, laundry and kitchen lines simultaneously. In many homes a sediment prefilter helps prevent premature clogging, while the carbon stage does the main work removing perchloroethylene—Mr. Pure Water can help select the right whole-house carbon system for your household’s water use and plumbing layout.
