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 the source. Because it volatilizes readily, it can affect both the water you use and the air in your home during showers, laundry, or dishwashing. Homeowners in Saint Augustine South usually can’t detect it 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 house is the most effective next step.
Even crystal-clear water can contain tiny amounts of VOCs like 1,1-dichloroethylene, and concentrations can change over time. Many families in St. Johns County prefer to limit exposure for everyday uses—cooking, brushing teeth, and bathing—not just at a single tap. A whole-house system delivers consistent treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen, and appliances throughout your Saint Augustine South home, offering one convenient solution for routine household use in our humid, coastal environment.
For treating 1,1-dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water flows through the carbon media, removing contaminants before they reach showers, sinks, and appliances. Installed at the point of entry, a GAC tank helps reduce both ingestion risks and the likelihood that VOCs will volatilize into indoor air in your Saint Augustine South residence.
Sizing matters: a properly sized GAC tank gives water enough contact time with the carbon to remove VOCs effectively, so the system should be matched to your home’s flow rate and usage. Carbon media does become exhausted and requires routine replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and prefiltration helps protect the carbon from sediment—especially important with hard municipal groundwater that can cause scale in St. Johns County. Mr. Pure Water can help you choose a whole-house GAC setup tailored to your Saint Augustine South property to focus on lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene reliably.
