Including filter system and high-performance 1,1,1-Trichloroethane filter.
1,1,1-trichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when industrial degreasers or similar chemicals reach groundwater. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it can affect more than just drinking water — think cooking, showering, and laundry as well. It often won’t change water’s appearance, and any smell can be subtle, so homeowners in Alafaya and the surrounding Orange County area commonly rely on testing to determine whether it’s present.
If testing shows levels above recommended guidelines, many Alafaya homeowners choose to treat water where it enters the house. A whole-house system protects every faucet and appliance — from the dishwasher to outdoor spigots — without changing how you use water. In hard-water parts of Central Florida like ours, a properly configured whole-house approach can reduce routine exposure to VOCs while maintaining the household water pressure and flow you expect.
The most effective single filter type for lowering 1,1,1-trichloroethane in home water is a high-quality activated carbon filter built for VOC removal. Activated carbon removes many solvent-type compounds by adsorption as water passes through the media. For whole-house treatment this commonly comes as a large carbon tank rather than a small cartridge so there’s enough contact time to treat the full flow of an Alafaya home, including hot and cold lines.
Because 1,1,1-trichloroethane is a VOC, performance depends on the carbon’s quality, how much media is used, and the flow rate through the tank. A whole-house activated carbon system should be sized for your household demand so water moves slowly enough for effective adsorption, which matters in hard-water homes in the Orlando metro area. Carbon media is finite and needs periodic replacement. Mr. Pure Water can help Alafaya homeowners pair the right carbon whole-house filter to their water test results and household needs.
