Including filter system and high-performance 1,1-Dichloroethylene filter.
1,1-dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter groundwater when industrial solvents or related chemicals affect local sources. Because it readily evaporates, any 1,1-dichloroethylene present in your Vernon water can also transfer into the air during showers, laundry or dishwashing. It usually does not change the water’s taste, smell, or appearance, so testing is the only reliable way to know if it’s there. If your water tests elevated, homeowners often choose to treat the water at the point where it first comes into the house.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene can be present at very low concentrations and may fluctuate, even when your water looks clear. Many Vernon families prefer to reduce exposure for routine tasks—cooking, toothbrushing, bathing—rather than limit treatment to a single faucet. Installing a whole-house system keeps treated water consistent across bathrooms, the kitchen and appliances, giving one convenient solution that protects everyday household uses.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene is a granular activated carbon (GAC) point-of-entry system. GAC removes many VOCs by adsorbing contaminants as water flows through the carbon media, treating water before it reaches Vernon taps, showers and appliances. This helps address both ingestion risks and airborne exposure that can occur during normal household activities.
Sizing matters: a properly chosen GAC tank gives the contact time needed to remove VOCs and should match your home’s peak flow and daily water use. Carbon media will eventually become exhausted and requires scheduled replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and using a prefilter can protect the carbon from sediment that would reduce its effectiveness and raise pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can work with Vernon homeowners to select and install a whole-house carbon system sized for their house and focused on lowering 1,1-dichloroethylene reliably.
