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 are present. Because it readily evaporates, it can move from water into the air inside your home during showers, laundry, or dishwashing. It often can’t be detected by taste, smell, or sight, so testing is the reliable way to find out if it’s an issue. For Westgate homeowners in Palm Beach County worried about household water quality, treating water where it enters the house is a practical way to reduce potential exposure.
VOCs such as 1,1-dichloroethylene may be present at very low concentrations and can change over time, even when water appears clear. Many families in Westgate prefer to limit exposure across everyday activities—cooking, brushing teeth, bathing—not just at a single tap. A whole-house system delivers consistent treatment to bathrooms, the kitchen, and appliances, which is useful in a region with hard water and seasonal interruptions to service that can affect water quality.
The most effective single whole-house option for reducing 1,1-dichloroethylene is a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter installed at the point of entry. GAC media adsorbs many VOCs as water flows through it, treating supply before it reaches showers, sinks, and household appliances. For Westgate homes—whether in Westgate-Belvedere Homes, Lake Belvedere Estates, or other nearby neighborhoods—a properly installed GAC point-of-entry system helps address both ingestion and the volatilization of VOCs during normal use.
Sizing a GAC tank correctly is important because contact time with the carbon affects VOC removal; the system should match your household flow rate and peak water use. Carbon media also needs periodic replacement or re-bedding to maintain performance, and adding prefiltration protects the carbon from hard-water scale and sediment that can shorten its life or increase pressure loss. Mr. Pure Water can help Westgate homeowners choose and size a whole-house carbon setup tailored to Palm Beach County’s conditions and your household’s needs.
