1,1,1-Trichloroethane in St Lucie Village Florida Water

Unhealthy Levels of 1,1,1-Trichloroethane in the Water Supply of St Lucie Village Florida Homes

1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can reach drinking water when industrial cleaners or degreasing chemicals move into groundwater. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it can affect more than just what you sip — it can be present in water you use for cooking, showering and laundry. Because it often doesn’t change water’s appearance and any smell may be subtle, local homeowners in St Lucie Village commonly rely on testing to know whether this contaminant is present in their supply.

If testing shows 1,1,1-Trichloroethane above recommended levels, many St Lucie Village residents find it sensible to treat the water at the point it enters the home. A whole-house system protects every faucet and appliance — from the kitchen to outdoor hose bibs — so the whole family’s routine isn’t disrupted. In our humid subtropical climate and hard-water conditions, a properly selected whole-house solution can remove VOCs while maintaining steady flow and pressure throughout the house.
