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 readily volatilizes, it can affect the air in your home during showers, laundry and dishwashing as well as the water you use. It usually can’t be seen, tasted or smelled, so the only way to know if it’s present is a water test. If testing shows elevated levels, many Garden Isles homeowners choose to address it at the point where water first comes into the house.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are often found at very low concentrations that change over time, so clear-looking water isn’t a guarantee of safety. Many families in the Broward County area prefer to lower exposure for everyday activities — cooking, teeth-brushing and bathing — rather than treating only a single faucet. A whole-house system delivers consistent treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances throughout your Garden Isles home, giving one reliable solution for routine use.
For treating 1,1-dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is widely considered the most effective single-filter option. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water flows through the carbon media, and when installed as a point-of-entry system it protects showers, sinks and household appliances. This reduces both ingestion risk and the chance that VOCs will volatilize into the air inside your home.
Correct sizing of a GAC tank is important because contact time with the carbon affects VOC removal, and the system should match your home’s flow rate and daily water use. Carbon media eventually becomes exhausted and requires routine replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and adding a prefilter helps keep sediment out of the carbon bed to prevent pressure loss and premature wear. Mr. Pure Water can help Garden Isles homeowners pick a whole-house carbon setup tailored to local conditions — including moderate hardness and coastal salt-air effects — to reliably reduce 1,1-dichloroethylene.
