Including filter system and high-performance 1,2,3-Trichloropropane filter.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a man-made industrial chemical that can appear in drinking water at very low concentrations and may persist in groundwater where it has been introduced. Because it doesn’t change the taste, smell, or look of water, the only reliable way to know if it’s present is through laboratory testing — especially important here in Wagon Wheel where water quality can vary depending on whether you’re on a municipal line or a private well. Many local homeowners prefer a whole-house solution so every faucet, shower and appliance is covered rather than relying only on a single point-of-use filter.
Seeing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane on a water report can be unsettling when you think about everyday tasks like cooking and bathing. Fortunately, residential treatment approaches are well established, and effective filtration technologies exist for homes. The right choice for a Wagon Wheel property depends on the water source and the contaminant level, and because water hardness and other factors vary across Florida, a professional assessment and basic water test will help determine the best system size and type for your household.
The single most effective whole-house filter for 1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a granular activated carbon (GAC) system built for chemical adsorption. As water flows through the carbon bed, organic compounds are captured within the porous media. Because removing 1,2,3-Trichloropropane depends on the specific carbon used, the contact time and the flow rate, the GAC tank must be properly sized for your Wagon Wheel home to ensure adequate treatment for showers, taps, appliances and outdoor spigots.
At Mr. Pure Water we can design a whole-house activated carbon system tailored to a Wagon Wheel residence and its water usage and pressure needs. Installing pre-filtration to remove sediment is a common step to protect the carbon bed and sustain performance in Florida’s humid subtropical climate. Like all adsorption media, carbon requires periodic replacement based on how much water you use and what the tests show, so we include maintenance planning to keep your system working well and provide treated water throughout the home without relying on separate point-of-use units.
