Including filter system and high-performance 1,1,1-Trichloroethane filter.
1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can reach drinking water when industrial degreasers or related chemicals make their way into groundwater. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it can affect more than just beverages — it’s present in water you cook with, bathe in, and use for cleaning. Because it doesn’t always alter color and any smell can be faint, visual checks aren’t enough; many Perkins homeowners rely on professional water testing to know whether this contaminant is present.
If testing shows 1,1,1-trichloroethane above recommended levels, treating the water where it enters your Perkins home is often the preferred route. A whole-house system protects every faucet and appliance, not only the kitchen sink, and reduces everyday exposure from routine tasks without changing how your household uses water. The correct system focuses on VOC removal while maintaining steady water pressure and flow throughout the house.
The single most effective filter type for removing 1,1,1-trichloroethane from a home supply is a high-quality activated carbon filter designed for VOC reduction. Activated carbon removes many solvent-type compounds by adsorption as water passes through the media. For whole-house protection, this is installed as a sizable carbon tank rather than a small under-sink cartridge so there’s enough contact time to treat the full flow to a Perkins household. When sized correctly, a carbon system can handle both hot and cold water throughout your home.
Because 1,1,1-trichloroethane is a VOC, how well it’s removed depends on carbon quality, media volume, and the rate water flows through the tank. A whole-house activated carbon system should be sized for your Perkins household so water moves slowly enough for effective adsorption. Media will need periodic replacement since carbon eventually becomes exhausted. Mr. Pure Water can help interpret your water test and recommend the right carbon-based whole-house system for your home’s needs.
