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 appears clear and tastes normal, so the only way to know for sure is through testing or your utility’s report. For Union Park homeowners who want confidence in the water used for drinking, cooking, and bathing, treating water at the point where it enters the house provides protection for every faucet and appliance.
VOCs such as 1,1,2-trichloroethane can worry families that use the same water daily for drinking, bathing and laundry because they can persist in water without visible signs. If your home in Union Park is on a private well, regular testing is especially important because there isn’t routine municipal monitoring at the property level. And even for customers on city or county systems in the Orlando/Orange County area, an added layer of whole-house filtration can give extra reassurance beyond standard treatment.
The most effective single-filter option for reducing 1,1,2-trichloroethane is a whole-house activated carbon filter. Systems using high-quality catalytic or coconut-shell activated carbon remove many VOCs by adsorbing them as water passes through the media. Installed at the main water entry to a Union Park home, this solution treats water for showers, sinks, laundry and drinking water all at once—offering broader coverage than a small under-sink unit.
Removal performance depends on contact time and the volume of carbon media, so choosing the correct tank size and flow rate is important—especially in hard-water areas like much of the Orlando/Orange County region where mineral scale can affect fixtures and appliances. A properly sized whole-house carbon system maintains better VOC reduction during varied household demand, from a single faucet to multiple showers. Mr. Pure Water in Union Park can help size and install the system you need and arrange follow-up testing to confirm the results.
