Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter groundwater if industrial solvents or related chemicals reach local water sources. Because it readily evaporates, it can move from water into the air inside your home during showers, laundry and dishwashing, so it’s not only a drinking-water concern. It often has no taste, smell or visible signs, which is why testing is the reliable way to know whether it’s present. If your Secotan water test shows elevated levels, addressing the issue at the point where water enters the house is a practical next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene are typically measured at very low concentrations and can fluctuate, so clear-looking water doesn’t guarantee it’s free of contaminants. Many Secotan homeowners prefer a solution that reduces exposure for everyday activities like cooking, brushing teeth and bathing rather than treating a single faucet. A whole-house system delivers consistent treatment to bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances, giving you one installation that covers routine water use throughout your home.
For treating 1,1-dichloroethylene, the most effective single-filter whole-house option is a granular activated carbon (GAC) system. GAC works by adsorbing many VOCs as water flows through the carbon media, and when installed as a point-of-entry unit it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks and household appliances. This helps reduce both ingestion and the chance that VOCs will volatilize into indoor air during normal use in Secotan homes.
Correct sizing of the GAC tank is important because VOC removal depends on contact time, so the system should be matched to your house’s flow rate and daily water use. Carbon media will become exhausted over time and requires scheduled replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance; adding prefiltration can protect the carbon from sediment that shortens its life and raises pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can help Secotan homeowners choose a whole-house GAC setup sized for their home and focused on reliably lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene.
