Whole-home carbon filtration treats water where it enters your house, reducing chlorine, chlorine dioxide by-products, and the taste and odor issues they cause, without adding softening. It's the right fit if you don't need or want a softener but still want cleaner-tasting, better-smelling water throughout your home.
Chlorine and chlorine dioxide are added at the treatment plant to keep water safe, but both can leave a noticeable taste and smell. Carbon filtration adsorbs these compounds as water passes through it, along with other organic material that affects taste, especially during seasonal changes in a surface-water supply. Treated at the point where water enters the house, it improves every tap, not just the kitchen sink. Fort Wayne's water uses chlorine and chlorine dioxide, not chloramine, which standard carbon handles well. It's a taste and comfort fix, not a safety one, the water already meets safety standards before carbon touches it.
