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 reach the environment. As a volatile organic compound (VOC), it may be present even when water looks and tastes normal, so the only reliable way to know is through testing or a utility report. In Orange Blossom and elsewhere in Lake County, homeowners who want assurance about the water coming from every faucet often choose point-of-entry treatment to protect the whole house.
Even low levels of VOCs such as 1,1,2-trichloroethane can be worrying because families use the same water for drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry. This contaminant is tied to solvent use and can persist in sources without obvious signs, so periodic testing is a smart step—especially for private well owners in the Greater Orlando area where municipal monitoring may not apply to every home. If your home in Orange Blossom is on city-supplied water, adding a whole-house filtration layer gives extra peace of mind beyond standard utility treatment.
A whole-house activated carbon filter is generally the single most effective option for reducing 1,1,2-trichloroethane. Systems using high-quality catalytic or coconut shell activated carbon remove many VOCs by adsorption as water flows through the media. Installed at the point where water enters your Orange Blossom property, a properly configured carbon tank treats water for drinking, bathing, laundry and all faucets at once—offering more consistent coverage than an under-sink unit for homes dealing with hard Central Florida water.
VOC removal relies on adequate contact time and enough media, so choosing the right carbon tank size and flow rate is important for ongoing performance. A correctly sized whole-house carbon system can sustain better reduction during typical Orange Blossom household use—whether it’s a single tap or multiple showers at once—and will require periodic media replacement to prevent breakthrough. Mr. Pure Water can help size a system for your hard-water home in Lake County and verify results with follow-up testing if you’d like.
