Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can reach groundwater when industrial solvents or related chemicals enter the environment. Because it volatilizes easily, it can move from water into the air during showers, laundry and dishwashing, so it affects more than just drinking water. It commonly can’t be detected by taste, smell or sight, which is why testing is the usual way to know whether it’s present. If testing shows elevated levels, addressing the issue where water enters your Lakemont home is a sensible next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are often present at very low concentrations that can change over time, so clear-looking water isn’t always a guarantee of safety. Many families in and around Lakemont prefer to lower exposure for everyday activities like cooking, brushing teeth and bathing rather than treating only a single tap. A whole-house system provides consistent treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances — a practical choice for humid subtropical Lakemont households that want one solution for the entire home.
For whole-house reduction of 1,1-dichloroethylene, a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter installed at the point of entry is typically the most effective single-filter option. GAC media adsorbs many VOCs as water passes through, treating water before it reaches showers, sinks and household appliances. In Lakemont, where homes often use mineral-rich groundwater, a GAC point-of-entry system treats water used for both ingestion and everyday household needs where VOCs might otherwise volatilize.
Sizing the GAC tank correctly is important because contact time with the carbon determines how well VOCs are removed; the system should match your home’s flow rate and typical water use. Like all carbon media, the bed will require periodic replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and prefiltration helps protect the carbon from sediment and the heavy minerals common to central Florida groundwater that can cause limescale. Mr. Pure Water can help Lakemont homeowners choose a whole-house carbon setup tailored to their plumbing and usage to reliably lower 1,1-dichloroethylene.
