1,1-Dichloroethylene in Aurantia Florida Water

Unhealthy Levels of 1,1-Dichloroethylene in the Water Supply of Aurantia Florida Homes

1,1-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter groundwater when certain industrial solvents or related chemicals make their way into the environment. Because it vaporizes readily, it can affect both the water and the air inside your Aurantia house during showers, laundry, or dishwashing. It’s often undetectable by taste, smell, or sight, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present is through testing. If results suggest elevated levels, addressing the water where it first comes into your home is a sensible next step.

VOCs like 1,1-Dichloroethylene are measured at very small concentrations and can change over time, so clear-looking water in an Aurantia home isn’t proof of absence. Many families in humid subtropical climates like ours prefer to lower exposure for everyday activities—cooking, brushing teeth, and bathing—not just at a single faucet. A whole-house solution keeps treated water consistent to every bathroom, kitchen tap, and appliance, offering a single, convenient way to protect routine household use.
