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 detected in drinking water at very low concentrations and can persist in groundwater. Because it has no reliable taste, smell, or color, the only way to know if it’s present in your supply is through proper testing. Many homeowners here in Gaskins Still choose a whole-house system so every faucet, shower and appliance is protected rather than relying solely on a single point-of-use unit.
Seeing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane on a water report can raise questions about everyday activities like cooking, bathing, and laundry. The encouraging news is that residential treatment approaches are well established and effective when matched to the source water and concentration. A local professional assessment in Gaskins Still will help determine the right technology and correct sizing for your household’s needs and water conditions.
For whole-home removal of 1,2,3-Trichloropropane, the proven single-filter choice is a granular activated carbon (GAC) tank sized as a whole-house carbon filter. Activated carbon removes many organic contaminants by adsorbing them into its porous media as water flows through. Because 1,2,3-Trichloropropane can be stubborn, the specific carbon grade, contact time and flow rate are important—so a correctly sized GAC system is essential to treat water used at showers, faucets, appliances and outdoor taps in Gaskins Still.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Gaskins Still homes that balances your household’s flow and pressure requirements while targeting 1,2,3-Trichloropropane. We often include a pre-filter to remove sediment and protect the carbon bed, and we’ll set a maintenance schedule for media replacement based on your water use and contaminant load. A properly configured GAC system delivers treated water throughout the home so you don’t need multiple point-of-use filters.
