Including filter system and high-performance 1,2-Dichloroethane filter.
1,2-Dichloroethane is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when industrial chemicals reach water supplies. Because it may have no noticeable taste or smell, many Franjo homeowners only discover it through testing. For families who want protection everywhere in the house—drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry alike—a whole-house system brings peace of mind by treating water at the point it enters your home.
If you’re worried about 1,2-Dichloroethane in Franjo water, start by testing your supply and then match the treatment to the results. Different contaminants need different filter media, and not every general-purpose cartridge is effective for solvent-type chemicals. Even clear water can carry trace organics, so choose systems based on verified performance. The aim is reliable reduction at every tap without altering how you use plumbing in your home.
To reduce 1,2-Dichloroethane, the most reliable single-filter solution is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system made for chemical adsorption. Activated carbon’s large surface area captures many organic compounds as water flows through, and a correctly sized GAC tank gives the contact time needed for effective adsorption. Installed at the point of entry, a GAC unit treats water before it reaches kitchens, bathrooms and appliances in Franjo homes.
A whole-house GAC filter is a low-maintenance, non-electric option that treats water automatically whenever you run a tap. For steady performance in Franjo’s humid subtropical climate, select a system sized for your household flow rate and daily water use—higher demand shortens contact time and can reduce effectiveness. Often a sediment prefilter is added ahead of the carbon to block dirt and extend the carbon’s life. Mr. Pure Water can guide Franjo homeowners to the right whole-house GAC configuration focused on reducing 1,2-Dichloroethane throughout the home.
