Including filter system and high-performance Pseudomonas filter.
Pseudomonas is a group of bacteria that can appear in household water when conditions let it survive and grow. Pseudomonas aeruginosa in particular forms slimy biofilms on wet surfaces and inside plumbing parts, making it tougher to wash away where water pools or flow is low. In Thompson homes you might notice recurring odors, cloudy film, or buildup around faucets, showerheads, and aerators when these microbes are present.
Because Pseudomonas commonly lives in biofilms, one quick fix may not remove it completely. It can hide in faucet screens, hoses, humid spots, and plumbing sections with little disinfectant residual. Homeowners with sensitive skin often want to improve water hygiene for bathing and daily use. If you’re worried about unhealthy levels of Pseudomonas in Thompson’s household water, treating the whole house helps reduce exposure at every sink, tub, and shower.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for Pseudomonas is a UV (ultraviolet) disinfection system installed at the main water entry to your home. UV inactivates microbes as water flows through the chamber without adding chemicals, making it a good fit for bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and for protecting water used in showers, brushing teeth, and washing. Because UV needs clear water and the right capacity, it’s important to size and place the system to match your Thompson household’s flow and source—especially if you rely on a private well or municipal supply that can be affected by Florida’s mineral-rich groundwater and seasonal rains.
A UV unit is usually installed with a sediment prefilter to stop particles from shading organisms from the light; the UV lamp is the main tool for microbial control. With correct installation and regular lamp and sleeve upkeep, ultraviolet treatment delivers whole-house protection without altering taste or odor. If Pseudomonas has left biofilm in fixtures, cleaning or replacing aerators and showerheads is a smart follow-up after adding UV. Mr. Pure Water can recommend and size a whole-house UV system for Thompson homes so treated water reaches every bathroom, kitchen, and hose bib.
