Including filter system and high-performance PFUnA filter.
PFUnA is one of the PFAS people ask about when they research persistent, hard-to-remove contaminants in drinking water. It can find its way into water supplies through industrial uses and the breakdown of related fluorinated chemicals, and it tends to remain rather than break down quickly. Riomar homeowners often hear about PFUnA through utility notices, local news in the Jacksonville area, or private well testing; if you’re worried, focus on treatment options designed specifically to reduce PFAS.
Because PFUnA is usually present at very low levels, you typically won’t be able to see, smell, or taste it in your tap water in Riomar. That makes testing the only reliable way to know what’s really in your supply. PFAS like PFUnA behave differently than familiar issues such as chlorine, sediment, or moderate hardness, so common cartridge filters often won’t address them. For everyday exposure from drinking, cooking and showering around the home, a whole-house solution can be a sensible choice.
For whole-house reduction of PFUnA, a high-quality granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the single-filter option most commonly used in homes. Carbon media offers a very large surface area that can adsorb many organic compounds, including various PFAS. Effective PFUnA reduction depends on the correct carbon type, adequate contact time and appropriate flow rates—so a properly sized whole-house carbon tank for a Riomar household matters more than a small, fast-flow cartridge.
At Mr. Pure Water we typically install whole-house GAC systems at the point where water enters the home so treated water reaches every tap in Riomar. Systems are sized to match household water use to avoid short contact times that can cut into PFAS capture, and carbon media must be serviced and replaced on schedule as it becomes loaded. If you have a recent water test from the Jacksonville metro area, we’ll use it to recommend the right whole-house carbon configuration for PFUnA reduction.
