Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter drinking water when industrial solvents or related chemicals reach groundwater. Because it volatilizes readily, it can affect both the water and the air inside your home during showers, laundry and dishwashing. It usually won’t change taste, smell or appearance, so testing is the only reliable way to know if it’s present. If a test shows elevated levels, addressing the issue where water enters Bryant homes is a practical next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-Dichloroethylene can be present in very small, fluctuating amounts even when water looks clear. Many Bryant families choose to lower exposure for everyday activities like cooking, bathing and brushing teeth rather than treating a single faucet. A whole-house system delivers consistent treatment to bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances — useful in our humid subtropical Florida climate and in homes that rely on groundwater from the Floridan aquifer, where mineral-rich water can vary by county and utility.
For addressing 1,1-Dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is generally the most effective single-filter option. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water passes through the carbon media. Installed as a point-of-entry system, it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks and household appliances, helping reduce both ingestion and the potential for VOCs to volatilize into indoor air.
Correct sizing of a GAC tank is important because sufficient contact time is needed for VOC removal; the system should match your home’s flow demands and typical water use. Carbon media will eventually become exhausted, so scheduled replacement or re-bedding is necessary to maintain performance. Adding a prefilter helps protect the carbon bed from sediment that can shorten its life and raise pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Bryant homeowners to choose a whole-house GAC setup sized to their household and focused on lowering 1,1-Dichloroethylene reliably.
