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 migrate into groundwater. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it can affect more than just what you swallow — water used for cooking, bathing, and laundry can be involved too. Because it often doesn’t change water’s appearance and odors can be faint, many Atlantis homeowners rely on testing to know whether this contaminant, also called methyl chloroform, is present in their supply.
If testing shows 1,1,1-Trichloroethane above recommended levels, treating water at the point it enters your Atlantis home is a common choice. A whole-house installation protects every faucet and appliance across Palm Beach County residences, so you don’t need separate filters at the kitchen sink or shower. This approach lowers routine exposure from daily uses without asking you to change how you live, and the right system is selected to remove VOCs while preserving normal water pressure and flow throughout the house.
To reduce 1,1,1-Trichloroethane in household water, the best single filter type is a high-quality activated carbon system sized for VOC removal. Activated carbon removes many solvent-type contaminants by adsorption as water passes through the media. For whole-house use in Atlantis and surrounding Palm Beach County communities, this usually means a larger carbon tank rather than a small under-sink cartridge so there’s enough contact time to treat full household flow. Properly sized carbon systems can handle both hot and cold lines around the home.
Because 1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a VOC, an activated carbon system’s effectiveness depends on the quality of the carbon, the volume of media, and how fast water flows through the tank. Whole-house carbon filters should be sized for your household demand so water spends enough time in the media for adsorption to work. Regular media replacement is also needed since carbon becomes exhausted. Here in Atlantis — where municipal water in Palm Beach County is commonly hard and mineral scale can be a concern — Mr. Pure Water can help you interpret test results and choose the right carbon-based whole-house solution for your home.
