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 vaporizes readily, it can affect the air during showers, dishwashing and laundry as well as the water you consume. It usually isn’t obvious by taste, smell, or sight, so testing is the reliable way to know whether it’s present. If test results show elevated levels, treating the water where it enters your Orangetree home is a sensible next step.
VOCs like 1,1-dichloroethylene are often found at very low concentrations and can change over time, so clear-looking water doesn’t guarantee safety. Many families in Orangetree choose to reduce exposure for everyday activities — cooking, brushing teeth, and bathing — rather than limiting treatment to a single faucet. A whole-house system delivers consistent treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen, and household appliances, making it an effective one-solution approach for routine use and indoor air concerns in our humid subtropical climate.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for reducing 1,1-dichloroethylene is a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter. GAC media adsorbs many VOCs as water passes through, removing contaminants before they reach showers, sinks, and appliances. Installed at the point of entry in an Orangetree home, a properly configured GAC system addresses both ingestion and the everyday volatilization that can occur during showering and other household tasks.
Sizing is important for reliable VOC removal because contact time in the carbon bed determines performance, so the GAC tank should match your household flow rates and usage. Carbon media will eventually become exhausted and requires scheduled replacement or re-bedding to maintain effectiveness; adding prefiltration helps protect the carbon from sediment and mineral scaling common in Southwest Florida groundwater. Mr. Pure Water can help Orangetree homeowners choose and size a whole-house GAC system that fits the home and helps reduce 1,1-dichloroethylene over the long term.
