Including filter system and high-performance Personal Care Products filter.
Everyday personal care products can leave behind tiny residues that sometimes make their way into household water after normal use and disposal. This category covers ingredients from soaps, shampoos, lotions, deodorants, fragrances and cosmetics, plus related consumer chemicals you might see called PPCPs. Often these traces aren’t detectable by taste or smell, but many Century homeowners prefer to limit what’s in the water used for bathing, laundry and cooking by taking proactive steps at the home level.
Because personal care products encompass many different formulations, they behave in different ways once they enter the water system — some dissolve readily, others bind to particles, and some degrade slowly. Their presence can vary with source water and treatment, so concentrations may be intermittent. For homeowners in Century who want a steadier, more reliable water experience throughout their house, reducing personal care products at the point where water enters your home helps limit exposure at faucets and showers day after day.
The most effective single-filter strategy for addressing many personal care products is a whole-house activated carbon system sized for your home’s full flow. Activated carbon removes a wide range of organic compounds — including many ingredients associated with personal care products and PPCPs — by adsorbing them onto the media. Because these compounds are often present at very low levels, it’s important to provide sufficient contact time with the carbon while maintaining strong flow; that’s why a high-capacity, properly sized carbon tank is generally preferred over small cartridge filters for whole-home treatment in Century residences.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house carbon filters at the point of entry so incoming water is treated before it reaches showers, sinks and appliances. This approach is better suited to addressing personal care products than basic sediment filtration alone. With the correct carbon media and sizing for your Century home, you can improve overall water quality without changing daily plumbing habits — a practical, whole-home step if you’re concerned about PPCPs.
