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 certain industrial solvents or related chemicals reach groundwater. Because it readily volatilizes, it can affect indoor air during showers, laundry, and dishwashing as well as the water you consume. Homeowners often can’t detect it by taste, smell, or sight, so testing is usually required to confirm its presence. If testing shows elevated levels, many Ocheesee residents choose to address the issue where water first enters the house.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene can be present at very low concentrations and may change over time even when water appears clear. Many families in and around Ocheesee prefer a solution that reduces exposure during everyday activities—cooking, brushing teeth, and bathing—not just at a single faucet. A whole-house system delivers treated water throughout the home, keeping showers, the kitchen, bathrooms, and appliances consistently protected with one central installation.
To lower 1,1-dichloroethylene, the most effective single-filter whole-house option is a granular activated carbon (GAC) system. GAC media adsorbs many VOCs as water flows through the carbon, removing contaminants before they reach taps and showers. Installed as a point-of-entry unit, a GAC tank treats water for the entire home and helps reduce both ingestion exposure and the chance of VOCs volatilizing into indoor air.
Sizing a GAC tank correctly for your household flow and water use is important because contact time with the carbon affects VOC removal. Carbon media will eventually be exhausted and requires scheduled replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance. Adding prefiltration can keep sediment out of the carbon bed, preserving efficiency and reducing pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Ocheesee homeowners to choose a whole-house GAC setup matched to your home and focused on lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene reliably.
