Including filter system and high-performance Vinyl Chloride filter.
Vinyl chloride is a synthetic chemical tied to plastics production that can enter drinking water when industrial solvents break down or materials leach. Because it often causes no change in taste, smell, or appearance, homeowners in Century might not notice it without testing. The most reliable way to detect vinyl chloride is a water test that includes volatile organic compounds (VOCs); if vinyl chloride shows up, it’s sensible to take steps to reduce exposure throughout the house.
Even if concerns about vinyl chloride start at the kitchen faucet, the contaminant can affect everyday activities like cooking, preparing beverages, brushing teeth, and filling pet water bowls. Many Century families choose a whole-house solution so treated water is available from every tap, not just the sink, which also reduces the chance of vinyl chloride being present in water used for bathing and laundry. The aim is straightforward for local homeowners: dependable treatment that covers the home’s routine water needs.
When addressing vinyl chloride, a catalytic activated carbon tank is the most effective single-filter option for a whole-house installation. Carbon filtration removes many organic contaminants by adsorption as water flows through the media, and catalytic carbon is selected when stronger VOC performance and faster reactive sites are desired. Because vinyl chloride is treated as a VOC, carbon-based adsorption is a primary, proven method, and a correctly sized tank ensures sufficient contact time for meaningful reduction.
Mr. Pure Water installs whole-house catalytic carbon systems so Century homes receive treatment at the point where water enters the property, protecting showers, sinks, and appliances with a single system instead of multiple small filters. The carbon media will eventually become saturated and should be replaced on a schedule determined by your water use and quality to keep performance steady. We recommend testing before and after installation to confirm the system is meeting your household’s goals.
