Including filter system and high-performance PFUnA filter.
PFUnA is one of the PFAS compounds homeowners hear about when researching persistent contaminants that don’t break down easily. It can make its way into water through industrial sources or the breakdown of related fluorinated chemicals and tends to remain rather than dissipate. Residents in Brookside often first learn about PFUnA from utility communications, local news, or private testing; when that happens it’s useful to concentrate on treatments known to reduce PFAS specifically.
Because PFUnA is usually present at very low levels, you’re unlikely to detect it by sight, smell, or taste—so testing is the only reliable way to know what’s in your water. PFAS like PFUnA act differently from familiar issues such as chlorine taste, sediment, or the limescale many Floridians see, and simple cartridge filters often won’t address them. For Brookside homes, a whole-house strategy treats water used for drinking, cooking, showering and appliances, which can be a practical way to reduce overall exposure.
For whole-house PFUnA reduction, granular activated carbon (GAC) is the single-filter choice most commonly recommended for residential systems. GAC media provides extensive surface area that can adsorb a variety of organic contaminants, including many PFAS. Effectiveness against PFUnA depends on using the right carbon type, ensuring sufficient contact time, and managing flow rates—so a properly sized whole-house carbon tank will usually outperform a small, fast-flow cartridge in Brookside installations.
At Mr. Pure Water we typically install a whole-house GAC system where the main line enters Brookside homes so treated water serves every tap and appliance. System sizing takes household water use into account to avoid short contact times that can reduce PFAS capture. As with all adsorption media, the carbon must be maintained and replaced on schedule as it becomes loaded to preserve performance; if you have a recent water test we’ll use it to recommend the right GAC configuration for PFUnA reduction.
