Including filter system and high-performance Total Organic Carbon filter.
Total organic carbon describes the mix of carbon-based material dissolved in your water. It can come from decaying plant material, algae, soil runoff, or tiny traces of everyday organics that make their way into source water. By itself it may not always have a noticeable taste or smell, but higher amounts can make water tougher to treat and may contribute to color, odor, or an off flavor. For Golfview homeowners, TOC is a helpful measure of organic load in the supply and a signal to consider treatment.
Often called dissolved organic carbon, much of what shows up in tests is in solution rather than visible particles. Even clear water can carry these organics, which sometimes react with disinfectants like chlorine and produce stronger pool-like tastes or odors. Organic films can also encourage slime buildup in plumbing and fixtures, especially where water sits. That’s why many residents around Palm Beach County, including Golfview, prefer whole-house approaches that address organics before they reach every faucet and appliance.
For whole-house reduction of total organic carbon, a catalytic carbon filter is typically the most effective single-filter choice. Carbon media attracts and holds a wide range of organic compounds that make up dissolved organic carbon, along with many taste- and odor-causing molecules. Catalytic carbon is designed to be more reactive than standard activated carbon, which can improve removal of certain stubborn organics and help your water feel cleaner from the kitchen to the shower. Because it treats all incoming water, a properly set up catalytic carbon system benefits the entire Golfview home.
The secret to lowering dissolved organic carbon with one filter is having enough carbon media and sufficient contact time, not a tiny cartridge that water rushes through. A correctly sized whole-house catalytic carbon tank also helps reduce chlorine taste and odor, which can be more noticeable when organics are present. To maintain steady results in a hard-water area like Palm Beach County, the system should be matched to your home’s flow rate and water use and placed upstream of fixtures and appliances you want protected. Mr. Pure Water can assess your Golfview home and recommend a whole-house catalytic carbon setup sized for your needs.
