Including filter system and high-performance PFAS filter.
PFAS are a group of man‑made chemicals often called forever chemicals because they resist breaking down in the environment. They’ve been added to many consumer and industrial products for stain resistance, water repellency, and other uses, and when they get into water supplies they can be stubborn to remove. Simple home options like pitcher filters or basic countertop cartridges usually won’t deliver the contact time or media needed to reduce PFAS effectively, so Franjo homeowners often seek more robust solutions after hearing about testing or monitoring in the area.
Because PFAS may be present even when water looks and tastes fine, many families around Franjo choose an extra layer of protection beyond standard treatment. A whole-house system treats water at the point of entry so showers, laundry, dishwashers and taps all receive the same filtered water. Treating all water used for cooking, washing produce, and making ice lowers the chance of everyday activities reintroducing contaminants, and gives homeowners peace of mind about what’s coming from every faucet.
For whole-house PFAS reduction, the most effective single option is a properly sized granular activated carbon (GAC) system using high-quality carbon that allows extended contact time. PFAS compounds can adsorb onto activated carbon, and systems engineered to slow flow through a carbon tank perform better than small inline cartridges designed mainly for chlorine taste and odor. In Franjo homes it’s important the carbon tank be sized to meet your household’s peak flow so the media can maintain meaningful reduction over time.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house GAC systems at the water entry point to deliver filtered water throughout Franjo homes — to showers, sinks, appliances and outdoor spigots — without relying on several small devices. Long-term performance depends on which PFAS are present, local water chemistry, and household use, so we focus on the right media selection and replacement schedule for your situation. If PFAS are a concern, we’ll help match a correctly sized carbon system to your home and goals for more dependable, cleaner water.
