Including filter system and high-performance Waterborne Viruses filter.
Waterborne viruses can make their way into household water when sewage or animal waste affects a source or when treatment and distribution systems are stressed. Because these viruses are microscopic, you usually won’t see, smell, or taste anything unusual in your water. For Pace homeowners who use the same water for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth, adding an extra layer of protection beyond standard treatment is a common and sensible choice.
Unlike visible sediment or routine taste-and-odor problems, viruses are extremely small and can pass through filters designed only to catch particles. They’re also different from bacteria, which tend to be larger and easier to trap. If you want more confidence in the water entering your Pace home, consider treatments and filtration strategies sized and chosen specifically to reduce microbial contaminants at the main water entry point.
For whole-house defense against waterborne viruses, a UV disinfection system is frequently the single most effective option to install on the main line. UV systems disinfect flowing water by exposing it to ultraviolet light inside a sealed chamber, targeting microorganisms like viruses without introducing chemicals. Because the unit treats water as it moves through your plumbing, every tap in a Pace house receives the same continuous protection.
UV units perform best when the water is clear, so they’re often paired with a prefilter to remove sediment that could shield viruses from the light. Choosing the right size for your home’s flow rate and keeping up with lamp and sleeve maintenance are both important for reliable operation. With a properly selected whole-house UV system, Pace residents can add a targeted, practical barrier specifically aimed at reducing viruses in the water entering their homes.
