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 industrial solvents or related chemicals affect groundwater. Because it readily evaporates, it can show up in the air inside your home during showers, laundry and dishwashing as well as in the water you use. Most homeowners won’t detect it by sight, taste or smell, so testing is the reliable way to know whether it’s present. If tests for your Selman home return elevated levels, treating the water where it enters the house is a sensible next step.
VOCs such as 1,1-Dichloroethylene are measured at very low concentrations and can change over time, so clear-looking water isn’t a guarantee of safety. Many Selman families choose to limit exposure during everyday activities like cooking, tooth brushing and bathing rather than relying on a single faucet treatment. A whole-house solution delivers the same treated water to bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances, giving consistent protection across the household and simplifying maintenance for busy homeowners.
For treating 1,1-Dichloroethylene, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is typically the most effective single-filter choice. GAC works by adsorbing many volatile organic compounds as water flows through the carbon media, and when installed at the point of entry it treats water before it reaches showers, sinks and laundry in your Selman residence. This method helps reduce both ingestion exposure and the VOCs that can volatilize into indoor air during everyday use.
Sizing the GAC tank correctly is important because adequate contact time is key to removing VOCs, and the system should match your home’s flow rate and water use. Carbon media will become exhausted over time and requires periodic replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and adding a prefilter can protect the carbon from sediment that would reduce efficiency and increase pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Selman homeowners to recommend a whole-house carbon system sized for their household and focused on lowering 1,1-Dichloroethylene reliably.
