Including filter system and high-performance Picloram filter.
Picloram is a herbicide that can enter drinking water through runoff and soil movement, especially near treated land. It’s not detectable by sight, taste, or smell, so many New Hope homeowners only learn it’s present after a water test. When picloram is a concern it’s treated as a trace contaminant issue rather than a simple nuisance like hardness, and the usual recommendation is to address it where water enters the house.
Because picloram is designed to persist, basic cartridge filters often struggle to remove it effectively. Homeowners in New Hope understandably worry about the water used for cooking, drinking, bathing, and rinsing produce, since everyday exposures add up. Whether you’re on a private well or New Hope’s public supply, a whole-house solution offers continuous protection for every tap instead of relying on a single point‑of‑use filter that can be overlooked or bypassed.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for lowering picloram is a high-capacity activated carbon system, typically using granular activated carbon (GAC). Carbon media adsorbs many organic chemicals, including certain herbicides, as water passes through the media bed. In New Hope homes a properly sized whole-house carbon tank gives much longer contact time than small cartridges, improving removal and treating all household water rather than only the kitchen sink.
Every water supply differs, so the appropriate carbon media and tank size should be selected based on your New Hope water test results and your household flow needs. Picloram reduction depends on concentration, water chemistry, and contact time, so system design matters as much as the media. Mr. Pure Water can help match a whole-house carbon filtration system to your home and, when needed, add prefiltration to protect the carbon from sediment and keep performance consistent during showers, laundry, and daily use.
