Including filter system and high-performance 1,1,2-Trichloroethane filter.
1,1,2-Trichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can reach groundwater when industrial chemicals enter the environment. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it may be present even when water looks and tastes normal, so many Lake Mary homeowners only discover it through lab testing or a municipal report. If you want reliable protection for every faucet in your Seminole County home—from the kitchen to the shower—treating water at the point of entry is a smart step.
Low levels of VOCs such as 1,1,2-Trichloroethane can be worrying for families who use the same water for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry every day. The compound is often linked to historical or current solvent use and can linger in water without obvious signs. If your Lake Mary residence relies on a private well—common in parts of the Orlando–Kissimmee–Sanford metro—regular testing is especially important because residential wells aren’t covered by municipal monitoring. Even if you receive city water, adding a whole-house layer of filtration can give extra peace of mind.
To reduce 1,1,2-Trichloroethane throughout a home, a whole-house activated carbon filter is typically the best single-filter choice. Systems that use high-quality catalytic or coconut shell activated carbon remove many VOCs by adsorption as water flows through the media. Installed at the main water line into your Lake Mary property, this type of whole-home filter treats water used for drinking, showers, dishwashing, and laundry all at once—handy for local families dealing with hard water and the extra scale it can cause.
Effective VOC removal depends on having adequate contact time and enough carbon media, so selecting the right tank size and flow rate matters for Lake Mary households. A correctly sized whole-house carbon system will keep up with changing demand—whether it’s a single faucet or multiple showers during humid Florida mornings—while reducing the risk of breakthrough. Like all carbon filters, periodic media replacement is required to sustain performance; Mr. Pure Water can recommend a system matched to your family’s usage patterns and arrange follow-up testing to verify results.
