Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can persist in groundwater at very low concentrations. Because it has no reliable taste, smell, or visible sign, the only way to know if it’s present in your water is through proper testing. Many Schall Circle homeowners choose a whole-house approach so that every faucet, shower and appliance is protected rather than relying solely on a single point-of-use device.
Seeing 1,2,3-trichloropropane on a lab report can raise questions about everyday uses like cooking, bathing and laundry. Treatment options are well established, and effective residential technologies exist; the best choice depends on your water source, hardness and the contaminant level being treated. In Schall Circle, where groundwater and hard water are common, a professional assessment ensures the system is sized and selected to match your home’s flow, pressure and mineral conditions.
The most effective single-filter choice for tackling 1,2,3-trichloropropane in a home is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system designed for chemical adsorption. Activated carbon captures many organic compounds within its porous media as water flows through. Because 1,2,3-trichloropropane can be more difficult to remove, factors like the carbon type, contact time and household flow rate are important, so the GAC tank must be properly sized for your Schall Circle residence to treat showers, faucets, appliances and outdoor spigots.
Mr. Pure Water can design and install a whole-house activated carbon system for Schall Circle homes that meets your household’s usage and pressure requirements. In hard-water areas served by limestone aquifers, pre-filtration to remove sediment and protect the carbon bed is often recommended to maintain consistent performance. Carbon is an adsorption media and requires periodic replacement based on use and contaminant load, so we include maintenance planning to keep your system working and provide treated water throughout the house without needing multiple point-of-use units.
