Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can appear in drinking water at trace levels and may persist in groundwater. You can’t detect it by taste, smell, or sight, so the only way to know if it’s present in your Betts water is through proper laboratory testing. Many homeowners around Betts choose a whole-house solution so showers, laundry, appliances and all faucets are protected rather than relying solely on a single point-of-use device.
Seeing 1,2,3-trichloropropane on a water test can raise questions about everyday activities like cooking and bathing, and that’s understandable for Betts residents. The good news is there are proven residential treatment options. The best approach depends on where your household water comes from and the contaminant level found, so a professional assessment in Betts helps determine the correct technology and system size for reliable removal.
For single-filter whole-house removal of 1,2,3-trichloropropane, granular activated carbon (GAC) designed for chemical adsorption is typically the most effective choice. GAC removes many organic contaminants by adsorbing them into its porous surface as your Betts water passes through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be more difficult to capture, the specific carbon type, contact time and flow rate are important — the tank must be sized to match your home’s water use to ensure proper treatment at every faucet and fixture.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Betts homes that fits your household’s flow and pressure needs while targeting 1,2,3-trichloropropane. We often include pre-filtration to protect the carbon bed from sediment and help maintain consistent performance. Like any adsorption media, carbon requires periodic replacement based on use and contaminant load, so we plan maintenance schedules up front to keep your system working well and delivering treated water throughout the house.
