Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter water when industrial solvents or related chemicals reach groundwater. Because it evaporates readily, it can move from water into the air when you shower, run the dishwasher, or do laundry, so it’s not just a drinking-water issue. It often has no obvious taste, smell, or color, which means testing is usually required to detect it. If your Peck home’s water test shows elevated levels, treating the water at the point where it enters the house is a sensible next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene can be concerning even at very low concentrations and can fluctuate over time, so clear-looking water in a Peck residence isn’t a guarantee of safety. Many families ask for protection across the whole home—kitchen, bathrooms and appliances—so everyday activities like cooking, brushing teeth and bathing use treated water. A whole-house solution keeps treatment consistent at every tap, which is convenient for a single, reliable approach for the entire household.
For addressing 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 passes through, removing contaminants before the water reaches showers, sinks and appliances. Installed as a point-of-entry unit for your Peck home, this type of filter helps reduce both ingestion and the potential for VOCs to volatilize during everyday water use.
Correct sizing of a GAC tank is important because adequate contact time with the carbon media drives VOC removal; the system should be matched to your home’s flow rates and typical water use. Carbon eventually becomes exhausted, so periodic replacement or re-bedding is required to maintain performance. Using prefiltration can protect the carbon bed from sediment that would otherwise reduce efficiency and increase pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can help Peck homeowners choose and size a whole-house GAC setup tailored to their needs to focus on lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene effectively.
