Including filter system and high-performance Personal Care Products filter.
Personal care products can leave trace ingredients that sometimes enter water supplies through everyday use and disposal. This group includes residues from soaps, shampoos, lotions, deodorants, fragrances, and cosmetics, plus related compounds that are often present at very low concentrations. You likely won’t detect them by taste or smell, but many Atlantis homeowners prefer to limit what’s in the water used for bathing, laundry, and cooking. When people mention PPCPs, they mean these personal care products and similar consumer chemicals that can persist through conventional treatment.
Because personal care products represent many different formulas, they act differently once they reach the water supply: some dissolve readily, some bind to particles, and others break down only slowly. That variability — combined with changes in source water and treatment upstream — is why concentrations can fluctuate. For homeowners in Atlantis and elsewhere in Palm Beach County, cutting back on these materials at the point where water enters your house can help provide a more consistent experience from the faucets and showers throughout your home.
For most personal care products, the single most effective whole-home solution is an activated carbon system sized for full-house flow. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic compounds, including a wide range of ingredients found in personal care products and other PPCPs. Because these contaminants often occur at very low concentrations, it’s important to provide sufficient contact time between the water and the carbon while keeping strong flow rates — which is why a properly sized, high-capacity carbon tank is generally preferred over smaller cartridge filters for whole-house use.
Mr. Pure Water designs whole-house activated carbon systems to treat water as it enters Atlantis homes, so reduction occurs before water reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. This approach is better suited to addressing personal care products than basic sediment filters alone. With the right carbon media and correct sizing you can improve water quality throughout your home without changing how you use plumbing day to day — a practical point-of-entry step if you’re concerned about PPCPs.
