Including filter system and high-performance PFEESA filter.
PFEESA is one of the PFAS family members that can reach source water as these persistent chemicals move through the environment. Because they linger, even small amounts may concern homeowners who want confidence in their tap water. PFEESA usually won’t change taste, smell, or appearance, so it can be present without obvious signs. In Pace, the best way to clarify your household’s situation is to check recent water quality reports or have your water tested directly.
When protecting your family from PFEESA, think about everyday exposure around the whole house — not just the kitchen faucet. Activities like cooking, making ice, showering, and brushing teeth all use the same water and can add up over time. While point-of-use filters are useful at a single tap, many Pace households prefer a whole-house system so treated water reaches every bathroom, laundry, and appliance for consistent peace of mind.
For PFAS compounds such as PFEESA, an activated carbon filter is the most effective single-filter option for whole-house treatment. Activated carbon reduces many organic contaminants by adsorbing them onto its large internal surface area. Whole-house installations typically use a properly sized catalytic carbon or granular activated carbon (GAC) tank tailored to your home’s flow rate and water use, because adequate contact time is essential for PFAS reduction.
A whole-house carbon system is placed at the main water entry to treat PFEESA before water reaches showers, sinks, and appliances throughout a Pace home. These systems are engineered to maintain good flow while providing enough media volume to capture contaminants over time. Maintenance is straightforward: media is replaced per the system design and usage, and backwashing models help prevent channeling. For homeowners who want one solution that protects water everywhere in the house, whole-house activated carbon is a practical, proven choice.
