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 clear and tastes fine, so Postil homeowners often only discover it through a water test or their utility’s report. If you’d like confidence in the water coming into your house, point-of-entry treatment can protect every faucet and appliance.
VOCs such as 1,1,2-Trichloroethane are a worry for families who use the same water for drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry every day. This compound is linked to solvent use and can linger in water without obvious signs. In Postil, if your home runs on a private well it’s especially important to test periodically since municipal monitoring won’t cover you; if you receive city water, adding an extra whole-house filter can give extra assurance beyond standard treatment.
A whole-house activated carbon filter is often the best single-filter choice to reduce 1,1,2-Trichloroethane. Systems that use high-quality catalytic or coconut shell activated carbon remove many VOCs by adsorption as water passes through the media. Installed at the main water entry for Postil homes, this solution treats drinking water, showers, laundry and all sinks at once—providing consistent reduction without relying on an under-sink unit.
VOC removal depends on contact time and the amount of carbon media, so selecting the correct tank size and flow rate is important for reliable performance. A properly sized whole-house carbon system for a Postil household will sustain better reduction during varying water use, from a single faucet to multiple showers. Like all carbon filters it needs periodic media replacement to prevent breakthrough; Mr. Pure Water can help size a system for your needs and arrange follow-up testing to confirm results.
