Including filter system and high-performance Total Organic Carbon filter.
Total organic carbon is a general measure of carbon-based material dissolved in your water. It often comes from decaying vegetation, algae, soil runoff or tiny traces of everyday organic compounds that enter source water. By itself it may not always be noticeable, but higher concentrations can make water harder to treat and contribute to color, off odors, or a strange taste. For Bascom homeowners, TOC is a helpful gauge of overall organic loading in the household supply.
You’ll sometimes see total organic carbon called dissolved organic carbon, since much of it is truly dissolved rather than visible particles. Even clear water can contain these organics, which can react with disinfectants like chlorine and create stronger chemical or pool-like smells and tastes. Organic material may also encourage slimy buildup inside plumbing and fixtures where water lingers. That’s why many people in Bascom choose whole-house treatment to address organics before they reach every faucet and shower.
For whole-house reduction of total organic carbon, a catalytic carbon filter is often the best single-filter choice. Carbon media adsorbs a broad range of organic compounds associated with dissolved organic carbon and many taste-and-odor molecules. Catalytic carbon is designed to be more reactive than standard activated carbon, improving removal of some tougher organics and helping your water feel cleaner throughout a Bascom home. Because it treats all incoming water, benefits extend to every tap and fixture.
Lowering dissolved organic carbon with one filter depends on having enough carbon media and sufficient contact time, not a tiny cartridge that water zips through. A properly sized whole-house catalytic carbon tank can also cut chlorine taste and odor, which organics can make more noticeable. To maintain steady results in a Bascom residence, the system should be sized for your home’s flow rate and installed ahead of the points you want protected. Mr. Pure Water can help select and install a whole-house catalytic carbon setup tailored to reduce total organic carbon effectively.
