Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter groundwater when certain industrial solvents or related chemicals contaminate the environment. Because it vaporizes easily, it can move from water into the air you breathe during showers, laundry, or dishwashing. It usually can’t be detected by sight, taste, or smell, so testing is the only reliable way to know if it’s present. If testing shows elevated levels, treating the water where it enters your Boca Del Mar home is a sensible next step.
VOCs like 1,1-dichloroethylene may be present even when water looks crystal clear, and concentrations can fluctuate over time. Many Palm Beach County households choose to lower exposure for everyday activities — cooking, brushing teeth, bathing — rather than limiting treatment to one faucet. A whole-house system keeps treated water consistent throughout bathrooms, the kitchen, and appliances, which is especially practical in Boca Del Mar where municipal water is typically hard and homeowners often want a single solution that protects the entire home.
The most effective single whole-house option for reducing 1,1-dichloroethylene is a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter installed at the point of entry. GAC media adsorbs many common VOCs as water flows through the carbon bed, treating supply before it reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. For Boca Del Mar families seeking to limit both ingestion and everyday volatilization from bathing and laundry, a properly installed GAC point-of-entry system is the recommended choice.
Sizing a GAC tank correctly is important because contact time with the carbon affects VOC removal; the system should be matched to your home’s flow rate and water use. In Boca Del Mar, where hard municipal water can contribute to mineral scale and sediment, pairing the carbon with appropriate prefiltration helps protect the carbon bed from abrasion and loss of efficiency. Carbon media will eventually need routine replacement or re-bedding, and Mr. Pure Water can help you choose a whole-house GAC setup tailored to your home and aimed at consistently lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene.
