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 operations. Because it can enter household water unseen, Viking homeowners benefit from knowing the likely sources and the standard treatment approaches so they can keep unwanted contaminants out of every tap.
Perchloroethylene can transfer from water into indoor air during normal activities, so exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. Everyday uses like showering, bathing, and dishwashing can release volatile organic compounds such as PCE into the home. Whether your Viking residence is on a public system with variable testing or a private well where testing is your responsibility, treating water at the point it enters the house offers protection throughout your living space.
To reduce perchloroethylene across the whole house, a whole-house activated carbon system is typically the best single-filter choice. Quality carbon media adsorbs many volatile organic compounds, including PCE/PERC, as water flows through the tank. Because tetrachloroethylene is volatile, stopping it at the point of entry also lowers what may be released during showers and other water use, delivering cleaner water to every fixture in your Viking home.
Sizing the carbon filter correctly matters because contact time and flow rate influence how effectively PCE is removed. Whole-house carbon systems are usually placed before the plumbing splits so they protect kitchen, bathroom, and laundry lines alike. In areas like Viking where groundwater is often hard and can contribute to scale, adding a sediment prefilter can protect the carbon bed from premature clogging, while the carbon stage remains the main defense against perchloroethylene—Mr. Pure Water can help match the right system to your home’s usage and plumbing layout.
