Including filter system and high-performance Personal Care Products filter.
Everyday use and disposal of soaps, shampoos, lotions, deodorants, fragrances and cosmetics can leave tiny residues that sometimes enter water supplies. This broad group — often called PPCPs — includes those familiar personal care product ingredients and related consumer chemicals that may persist at very low concentrations. You usually won’t detect them by taste or smell, but many Newport homeowners prefer to limit what’s in the water they bathe in, cook with, and wash clothes with.
Because personal care products span many different formulas, they act differently once they reach water: some dissolve, others bind to particles, and some break down only slowly. That variability, combined with changes in source water and treatment, means levels can fluctuate. For residents of Newport — where hard groundwater and humidity are factors for plumbing — cutting these compounds out at the point of entry helps provide a steadier, more predictable water experience across every shower and faucet.
The most effective single-filter solution for most personal care products is a whole-house activated carbon system sized to handle your home’s full flow. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic compounds, including a wide range of ingredients found in personal care products and PPCPs. Because these contaminants are often present at extremely low concentrations, a larger carbon tank that gives water adequate contact time while preserving strong flow is usually preferred over small cartridge-style filters for whole-home protection.
At Mr. Pure Water we design whole-house activated carbon systems to treat water as it enters Newport homes, so reductions occur before water reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. This approach is more effective for many personal care products than basic sediment filters alone. With appropriately selected carbon media and proper sizing — important in areas with harder groundwater — you can improve overall water quality without changing daily plumbing habits; a point-of-entry carbon filter is a practical, home-wide step if PPCPs are a concern.
