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 impact groundwater. Because it readily evaporates, it can move from water into the air during showers, laundry and dishwashing, so indoor exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. Many homeowners won’t detect it by taste, smell or sight, which makes testing the only reliable way to know if it’s present. If test results show elevated levels, treating water where it enters your Casa Blanco home is a practical next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are often measured in very small concentrations that can change over time, so clear-looking water isn’t a guarantee of safety. Families who want to lower everyday exposure for cooking, brushing teeth and bathing often choose a single whole-house solution rather than treating individual taps. A point-of-entry system ensures treated water throughout bathrooms, the kitchen and to appliances across your Casa Blanco residence, giving consistent protection for routine household use.
A whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice for reducing 1,1-dichloroethylene. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water passes through the carbon media, and when installed at the main water line it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks and appliances—helping reduce both ingestion and VOCs that could volatilize into indoor air in Casa Blanco homes.
Correct sizing and maintenance are important for a GAC tank because contact time affects VOC removal; the system should match your home’s flow rate and typical water use. Carbon media also needs periodic replacement or re-bedding so performance stays reliable as the media becomes exhausted. Using a prefilter can protect the carbon from sediment that might shorten its life or increase pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Casa Blanco homeowners to recommend a whole-house carbon setup sized for their household and focused on lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene effectively.
