Including filter system and high-performance PFTrDA filter.
PFTrDA is one of the PFAS chemicals that can migrate from industrial uses and everyday products into local water sources. Because PFAS are persistent, they can remain in water supplies long after the original release. While PFAS is often discussed broadly, specific compounds such as PFTrDA may appear on test reports. If PFTrDA shows up on a lab result for your Galliver home, looking into a whole-house solution is a practical next step.
PFTrDA won’t change the smell, taste, or clarity of your water, so testing is the only reliable way to detect it. Even when water meets regulatory limits, many Galliver homeowners choose to lower trace contaminants for peace of mind. A whole-house system treats water used for showering, cooking, laundry and brushing teeth, so the whole family sees the benefit rather than relying on separate point-of-use units.
The most effective single-filter option for PFTrDA in a whole-house arrangement is a high-capacity activated carbon system using granular activated carbon (GAC). GAC removes many longer-chain PFAS by adsorbing them as water flows through the media, and PFTrDA is generally better captured by quality carbon than some shorter-chain compounds. Proper tank sizing and sufficient contact time are important so the system performs well at Galliver household flow rates.
A whole-house carbon filter is installed at the main water entry point so every faucet and appliance in your Galliver home gets treated, without needing multiple under-sink units. To maintain PFTrDA reduction, the carbon media must be replaced on a schedule based on your water usage and the filter’s capacity; adding a sediment pre-filter helps protect the carbon from clogging. Mr. Pure Water can assess your home and recommend a properly sized activated carbon system built to reduce PFAS like PFTrDA throughout the house.
