Including filter system and high-performance Pseudomonas filter.
Pseudomonas is a type of bacteria that can persist in household plumbing when conditions let it grow. One common species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, forms slimy biofilms on damp surfaces and inside pipes or fixtures, which makes it tougher to wash away than many other microbes. In Bascom homes you might first notice recurring odors, a slippery film, or buildup around showerheads, faucets, and aerators—especially where water sits or flow is low.
Because Pseudomonas tends to hide in biofilms, dealing with it is often more than a one-time fix. It can colonize faucet screens, hoses, humid spaces, and plumbing areas where disinfectant levels are low. Homeowners with sensitive skin or open wounds often want cleaner water for bathing and everyday tasks. If you’re in Bascom and worried about unhealthy levels of Pseudomonas in your supply, taking a whole-house approach helps limit exposure from every tap in your home.
For whole-house protection against Pseudomonas, the most effective single-filter option is a UV (ultraviolet) disinfection system installed at the point where water enters your home. UV inactivates microbes as water flows through the chamber without adding chemicals, making it well suited to target bacteria like Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A properly sized unit treats all incoming water so showers, brushing teeth, and laundry receive treated water — just be sure the system matches your Bascom home’s flow requirements and water clarity.
A UV unit usually works best alongside a sediment prefilter that removes particles that could block the light; the UV lamp is the primary microbial control. With correct installation and scheduled lamp and sleeve maintenance, UV offers consistent whole-house treatment without altering taste or odor. If biofilm from Pseudomonas has affected fixtures, cleaning or replacing aerators and showerheads after installing UV helps, and Mr. Pure Water can recommend a Bascom-appropriate whole-house UV setup so treated water reaches every bathroom, kitchen, and outdoor spigot.
