Including filter system and high-performance Triclosan filter.
Triclosan is an antibacterial ingredient found in some soaps, toothpastes and household products that can wash down drains and travel into waterways. Many Bon Ami homeowners choose to reduce trace contaminants like triclosan throughout the house so every faucet and appliance delivers more consistent water. If you’re curious about what’s in your water, taking steps to lower exposure at every tap is a practical way to feel more confident about daily uses like cooking and cleaning.
Even when the water in your Bon Ami home looks clear, tiny organic compounds can still be present that you won’t see or taste. Triclosan is often called an “emerging contaminant,” meaning it may not show up in routine local testing or reports, which leaves homeowners wondering how best to address it. For everyday tasks—bathing, brushing teeth, preparing food—a whole-house system can treat water before it reaches any single faucet, rather than relying only on a point-of-use filter.
To reduce triclosan in household water, a whole-house activated carbon filter is generally the most effective single-filter choice. Activated carbon works by adsorbing many organic chemicals like triclosan, and when installed at the main water entry it treats water heading to showers, sinks and appliances across your Bon Ami home. This approach gives broad coverage without changing how you use water day to day.
A correctly sized carbon media tank filled with high-quality activated carbon offers the longer contact time needed to capture organics such as triclosan. In Bon Ami homes this whole-house carbon solution is often paired with a prefilter to limit sediment and keep the carbon working efficiently. Because flow rate, media volume and household water use vary by home, Mr. Pure Water can help select the right carbon tank so triclosan reduction doesn’t sacrifice water pressure or convenience.
