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 trace levels and can persist in groundwater. Because it has no reliable taste, smell, or visible signs, the only way to know if it’s present in your home’s supply is through proper testing. Many homeowners in Lakemont choose a whole-house solution so faucets, showers, and appliances are all protected rather than relying on a single point-of-use device.
Seeing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane called out on a water report can be worrying, especially when you’re thinking about everyday activities like cooking and bathing. Thankfully, residential treatment methods are well established and effective when matched to the source and concentration. In Lakemont, where groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer is commonly mineral-rich and water hardness can be an issue, a professional assessment will help determine the best technology and correct system sizing for your household’s needs.
The most effective single-filter option for reducing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane in a home is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system built for chemical adsorption. GAC works by capturing many organic contaminants within its porous surface as water flows through the tank. Because 1,2,3-Trichloropropane can be stubborn, factors like the carbon grade, contact time, and flow rate are important, so the unit must be sized to your home’s demand; a correctly specified GAC tank will treat water for showers, sinks, appliances and outdoor spigots from one central point.
Mr. Pure Water can design a whole-house activated carbon system for Lakemont homes that targets 1,2,3-Trichloropropane while matching your household’s flow and pressure requirements. We often include pre-filtration to reduce sediment and protect the carbon bed—especially helpful when hard, mineral-rich groundwater contributes to limescale in central Florida. Carbon media requires scheduled replacement based on usage and contaminant load, so we build maintenance plans into installations to keep performance steady and deliver treated water throughout your home.
