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 related chemicals reach groundwater. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it can impact more than just drinking water — think water you use to cook, shower, and clean. It often won’t alter how water looks, and any odor may be subtle, so many Fidelis homeowners rely on water testing to know whether this contaminant or other solvent-type chemicals are present.
If testing shows 1,1,1-trichloroethane above recommended levels, treating water where it enters your house is a common strategy. A whole-house system protects every faucet and appliance in the home rather than only the kitchen sink, helping reduce daily exposure during routine uses like bathing and laundry. For Fidelis residents, a properly installed whole-house solution can address VOCs while maintaining normal water pressure and flow throughout the house.
The single most effective filter type for removing 1,1,1-trichloroethane is a high-quality activated carbon filter specifically designed for VOC removal. Activated carbon removes many solvent compounds by adsorption as water passes through the media. For whole-house protection this typically means a large carbon tank rather than a small cartridge, which provides the contact time needed to treat the home’s full flow and can serve both hot and cold water lines throughout a Fidelis house.
Because 1,1,1-trichloroethane is a VOC, removal performance depends on carbon quality, the volume of media, and how fast water flows through the tank. A whole-house activated carbon system should be sized for your household demand so water moves slowly enough for effective adsorption, and media must be replaced periodically since carbon eventually becomes exhausted. Mr. Pure Water can help Fidelis homeowners interpret water test results and choose the right carbon-based whole-house filtration to meet their needs.
