Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can linger in groundwater and sometimes turn up in drinking water at very low concentrations. Because it has no reliable taste, smell, or visible signs, the only way to know if it’s present in your home is through proper water testing. Many homeowners in Malabar and across Brevard County prefer a whole-house solution so every faucet, shower and appliance is protected rather than relying on a single point-of-use device.
Seeing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane listed on a water report can be worrying when you think about cooking, bathing, or washing clothes. Fortunately, residential treatment approaches are well established and effective when matched to the source and concentration. In Malabar’s humid subtropical climate and the hard groundwater common to Brevard County, a professional assessment helps determine the best technology, correct system size, and any pretreatment needed to keep the system performing over time.
For whole-home removal of 1,2,3-Trichloropropane, the most effective single-filter choice is a granular activated carbon (GAC) tank sized as a whole-house carbon filter. GAC removes many organic chemicals by adsorbing them into its porous media as water flows through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be more difficult to treat, the specific carbon type, contact time, and flow rate are important—so the system must be properly sized for your household’s demand to treat showers, faucets, appliances and outdoor spigots in one location.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Malabar homes that meets your family’s water use and pressure needs. In Brevard County’s often hard groundwater, pre-filtration is commonly recommended to reduce sediment and protect the carbon bed from premature fouling. Carbon media also requires scheduled replacement based on usage and contaminant load, so we include maintenance planning to keep performance consistent and provide treated water throughout your home without depending on multiple point-of-use devices.
