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 local sources. Because it often has no noticeable taste or smell, it can go undetected without testing. Mims homeowners—many of whom rely on well water in Brevard County—choose whole-house protection to ensure the water used for cooking, bathing, laundry and drinking is treated before it reaches any faucet.
If you’re worried about 1,2-Dichloroethane in your supply, start by testing your water and then pick a filter matched to the result. Different contaminants respond to different media, and a general-purpose cartridge won’t always reduce solvent-type chemicals effectively. Even clear water from a Mims well can contain trace compounds, so base your treatment on verified performance and on how your household uses water rather than on appearance alone.
The single most effective whole-house option for reducing 1,2-Dichloroethane is a granular activated carbon (GAC) point-of-entry system sized for chemical adsorption. GAC’s vast surface area captures many organic solvents as water flows through, and a correctly sized tank gives the contact time needed for dependable removal. Installed where water enters your Mims home, this approach treats water before it reaches kitchens, bathrooms and appliances.
A whole-house GAC filter is a low-maintenance, non-electric solution that treats water automatically whenever it’s used. To maintain steady performance in a hard-water, humid subtropical climate like Mims and the Space Coast, pick a system sized for your household flow so contact time isn’t compromised by high demand. Many homes benefit from a sediment prefilter ahead of the carbon to protect against iron, mineral grit and other particulates common to local well water. Mr. Pure Water can help you design the right whole-house GAC setup to focus on reducing 1,2-Dichloroethane throughout your home.
