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 evaporates readily, it can leave the water and enter the air during showers, laundry, or dishwashing, so exposure isn’t limited to what you drink. It’s often undetectable by taste, smell, or appearance, which is why testing is the reliable way to know if it’s present. If testing shows elevated levels, treating water at the point it enters your Koerber home is a sensible next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene can be present in very small, fluctuating amounts even when water appears clear. Many Koerber families choose to reduce exposure for everyday activities—cooking, brushing teeth, bathing—not just at a single faucet. A whole-house solution delivers treated water consistently to kitchens, bathrooms, and appliances, so everyone in the household benefits from the same level of protection without needing multiple point-of-use units.
For addressing 1,1-dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice. Granular activated carbon adsorbs many VOCs as water flows through the carbon media, reducing what reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. Installed at your home’s main water line in Koerber, a properly configured GAC point-of-entry system treats water before it’s used, helping limit both ingestion and VOCs that can volatilize into indoor air.
Correct sizing of a GAC tank is important because contact time with the carbon determines how well VOCs are removed; the system should match your home’s flow rate and daily water use. Carbon media also becomes exhausted over time, so routine replacement or re-bedding keeps performance steady. Using a prefilter protects the carbon bed from sediment, preserves efficiency, and reduces pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Koerber homeowners to size and specify a whole-house GAC setup that focuses on reliably lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene for the entire household.
