Including filter system and high-performance PFUnA filter.
PFUnA is one of the PFAS people ask about when they research persistent contaminants in drinking water. It can reach water supplies through industrial uses and from the breakdown of related fluorinated chemicals, and it does not break down quickly. In June Park and the surrounding Brevard County area, homeowners often first hear about PFUnA after a utility notice, local news story, or private well test; if you’re concerned, concentrating on treatment options that target PFAS is a practical next step.
Because PFUnA is usually present at very low levels, you won’t detect it by sight, smell, or taste, which makes testing the only reliable way to know what’s in your water. PFAS like PFUnA act differently than familiar complaints such as chlorine taste, sediment, or the effects of June Park’s hard water, so simple cartridge filters often won’t address them. For many Brevard County homes a whole-house strategy is useful because it treats water used for drinking, cooking, showering and laundry at every tap.
For whole-house reduction of PFUnA, a granular activated carbon (GAC) tank is generally the most effective single-filter option for residential systems. GAC contains a very large surface area that adsorbs many organic contaminants, including a variety of PFAS. Effective PFUnA removal depends on using the correct carbon type, allowing enough contact time, and sizing the system for the home’s flow rates — which is why a properly sized GAC tank typically outperforms a small, fast-flow cartridge in homes across June Park and nearby neighborhoods.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house GAC systems at the main water entry so treated water reaches every faucet and appliance in June Park homes, helping protect against exposure when you drink, cook, or shower. We size systems to match household water use to avoid short contact times that can reduce PFAS capture, and we recommend scheduled media replacement because carbon becomes loaded over time. If you have a recent water test, bring it to us and we’ll tailor the GAC configuration to your results and your home’s usage patterns.
