Including filter system and high-performance 1,1,2-Trichloroethane filter.
1,1,2-Trichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can enter groundwater when industrial chemicals are released into the environment. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it may be present even when water looks and tastes fine, so Kinard homeowners often only discover it through testing or utility reports. If you want greater assurance about the water flowing from every faucet in your Florida home, treating at the point where water enters the house is an effective step.
VOCs such as 1,1,2-Trichloroethane can be worrying in small concentrations because families use the same water for drinking, cooking, bathing, and cleaning. This chemical is commonly linked with solvent use and can persist in sources without visible clues. If your Kinard residence draws from a private well, scheduling routine tests is especially important since wells aren’t covered by municipal monitoring; if you’re on a public system, adding a whole-house filter gives extra reassurance on top of standard treatment.
A whole-house activated carbon filter is often the single best option for reducing 1,1,2-Trichloroethane. Systems using high-quality catalytic or coconut shell activated carbon remove many VOCs by adsorption, trapping contaminants as water flows through the media. Installed at the main water line into your Kinard home, this style of filter treats water used for drinking, showering, laundry and more, providing consistent reduction without relying on small under-sink units.
Effective VOC removal depends on contact time and media volume, so choosing the correct carbon tank size and flow rate matters for Kinard households. A properly sized whole-house carbon system maintains better removal as demand shifts—whether one faucet is running or multiple fixtures are in use. Like all carbon filters, the media needs periodic replacement to prevent breakthrough; Mr. Pure Water can help size a system for your home and verify results with follow-up testing if you’d like.
