Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a man-made industrial compound that can sometimes be present in drinking water at trace levels and may linger in groundwater. Because it doesn’t change the water’s taste, smell, or appearance, testing is the only reliable way to know whether it’s present in your supply. Many Footman homeowners prefer a whole-house strategy so all fixtures — from showers to outdoor spigots — are covered rather than relying solely on a kitchen point-of-use unit.
Seeing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane on a water report can raise questions about everyday activities like cooking, bathing, and laundry. Fortunately, residential treatment approaches are well established and effective when matched to your water source and concentration levels. We recommend a professional assessment in Footman to determine the best technology and correctly size the system for your household’s needs and local conditions in Florida’s humid subtropical climate.
The most effective single-filter choice for addressing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane in a home is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system built for chemical adsorption. GAC removes many organic contaminants as water flows through its porous media, but success depends on the specific carbon used, contact time, and flow rates — so correct sizing is essential. A properly selected and installed GAC tank will treat incoming water for showers, faucets, appliances, and outside taps across your Footman property.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Footman homeowners, tailored to your household’s usage and pressure requirements. We typically include sediment pre-filtration to protect the carbon bed and keep performance steady over time. Activated carbon requires periodic replacement based on water use and contaminant load, so we build a maintenance plan into every system to ensure ongoing protection without depending on several point-of-use devices.
