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 contaminate sources. Because it readily evaporates, it can move from water into the air during showers, dishwashing, or laundry — affecting both what you drink and the indoor air in your Lowry home. It’s typically undetectable by taste, smell, or sight, so proper testing is the only reliable way to know if it’s present; when tests show elevated levels, treating water at the point it enters your house is a practical next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are often found at very low concentrations that can change over time, so clear-looking water doesn’t guarantee absence. Many Lowry families choose to lower exposure for everyday uses — cooking, brushing teeth, bathing — rather than limit treatment to a single faucet. A whole-house solution delivers treated water consistently to bathrooms, the kitchen, and appliances across your home, simplifying protection for routine activities.
For 1,1-dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is widely regarded as the most effective single-filter choice. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs onto its carbon media as water flows through, and when installed at the point of entry it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks, and household machines. That means lower potential for ingestion and for VOCs to volatilize into indoor air throughout your Lowry residence.
Sizing the GAC tank correctly is important because contact time with the carbon affects VOC removal; the system should match your home’s flow rate and daily water use. Carbon media will eventually need replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and adding prefiltration helps keep sediment from fouling the carbon and raising pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Lowry homeowners to choose a whole-house carbon system tailored to their plumbing and usage that focuses on reliably lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene.
