Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-trichloropropane is a manmade industrial compound that can persist in groundwater and sometimes appears in drinking water at trace levels. It doesn’t produce a noticeable taste, smell, or color, so the only way to know if it’s present in your Christmas well or municipal supply is through proper testing. Many homeowners here in Orange County prefer a whole-house approach so every faucet, shower and appliance gets protection rather than treating just a single tap.
Seeing 1,2,3-trichloropropane on a water report can be worrying when you think about cooking, bathing, or watering the yard near Fort Christmas or the Econlockhatchee River. The good news for Christmas residents is that treatment options are well established and residential filtration can be effective. The right system depends on whether your water comes from a private well—common around Bithlo and rural Christmas—and on the concentration found, so a professional assessment is the best way to match technology and system size to your household’s needs.
For most homes dealing with 1,2,3-trichloropropane, the most effective single-filter choice is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system sized for the property. GAC removes many organic contaminants by adsorbing them into its porous structure as water flows through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be stubborn, the carbon type, contact time and flow rate are important—especially in hard central Florida water that can carry iron or sulfur—so correct sizing and design matter to ensure your showers, faucets and outdoor spigots are treated.
Mr. Pure Water can design a whole-house activated carbon system for your Christmas home that fits your household’s demand and plumbing pressure. In this area we often recommend pre-filtration to reduce sediment and protect the carbon bed from well water particulates or hardness-related solids, which helps the system perform consistently. Carbon media does require periodic replacement based on use and contaminant levels, and we’ll include a maintenance plan so your family gets treated water across the house without juggling multiple point-of-use units.
