Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can sometimes be found in drinking water at very low concentrations and may persist in groundwater. Because it doesn’t change the taste, smell, or look of water, the only reliable way to know if it’s present is through proper testing. Many Fidelis homeowners prefer a whole-house solution so showers, laundry, and every faucet are protected—not just a single point like the kitchen sink.
Seeing 1,2,3-trichloropropane on a water report can be unsettling when you think about everyday uses such as cooking or bathing. Fortunately, there are established treatment approaches for homes, and proven technologies for residential systems. The best choice depends on your water source and the levels reported, so a local professional assessment in Fidelis will help select the right technology and properly size the system for your household needs.
For treating 1,2,3-trichloropropane in a residence, the most effective single-filter option is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system sized for chemical adsorption. Activated carbon removes many organic compounds by trapping them within its porous structure as water passes through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be stubborn, the specific carbon type, contact time and flow rate are important — the tank must be properly sized for your home to ensure showers, faucets, appliances and outdoor spigots receive treated water.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Fidelis homes that meets your household water use and pressure needs. We commonly include pre-filtration to keep sediment out of the carbon bed and preserve consistent performance. Like all adsorption media, carbon requires scheduled replacement based on usage and contaminant load, so we build a maintenance plan into the installation so you keep reliable whole-home protection without juggling multiple point-of-use filters.
