Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter groundwater when certain industrial solvents or related chemicals are present. Because it readily evaporates, it can move from water into the air during showers, dishwashing, or laundry—so the concern isn’t limited to what you drink. Households in Lakewood Park and the wider St. Lucie County area can’t rely on taste or smell to detect it; testing is generally the only way to know whether it’s in your water. If tests show elevated levels, addressing the contamination at the point where water enters your Lakewood Park home is a practical next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are often present at very low concentrations and can fluctuate over time, so clear-looking water isn’t a guarantee of safety. Many Lakewood Park families choose to reduce exposure across everyday activities—cooking, brushing teeth, bathing—rather than treating a single faucet. A whole-house solution delivers treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen, and appliances, providing consistent protection throughout your home in our humid subtropical climate and helping avoid volatilization during hot, humid days.
The most effective single-filter choice for reducing 1,1-dichloroethylene in a whole-house system is granular activated carbon (GAC). GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water passes through the carbon media, and when installed at the point of entry it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks, and household appliances in Lakewood Park. This treatment approach helps limit both ingestion and the everyday volatilization of VOCs around the home.
Sizing the GAC tank correctly is important because adequate contact time between the water and carbon is key to removing VOCs. For Lakewood Park homes—where hard water and mineral buildup are common on the Treasure Coast—the system should be matched to your household flow rate and usage to maintain performance. Carbon media will eventually become exhausted and requires periodic replacement or re-bedding, and adding prefiltration helps protect the carbon from sediment that can reduce efficiency and increase pressure drop. Mr. Pure Water can assess your Lakewood Park property and recommend a whole-house GAC setup tailored to reliably lower 1,1-dichloroethylene.
