Including filter system and high-performance cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene filter.
cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter drinking water when certain industrial solvents or degreasers break down and migrate into groundwater. Because it can travel away from its original source and persist, homeowners often won’t notice it by smell or taste at common concentrations—testing is how it’s usually found. If your Lakewood water test shows elevated cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, it’s sensible to consider steps that reduce exposure throughout the house.
Contaminants like cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene affect more than just the drinking faucet—cooking, bathing, and laundry use matter too. Treating water where it enters your Lakewood house ensures every tap and appliance benefits, preventing VOCs from circulating through plumbing and machines. A whole-house solution gives consistent protection across daily routines instead of relying on a single point-of-use device.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene is an activated carbon system formulated for VOC reduction. Carbon media adsorbs many organic compounds as water flows through, and when sized properly it provides the contact time needed to capture more of the compound before water reaches faucets. Installed and maintained correctly, a whole-home carbon filter quietly protects kitchen, bathroom, and laundry water in the background.
A whole-house carbon filter is normally fitted on the main service line so incoming water to your Lakewood residence is treated before distribution. Performance depends on proper sizing—flow rate, media volume and water chemistry all matter—so scheduled media replacement is required to maintain adsorption capacity. Mr. Pure Water in Lakewood can help size the right whole-house carbon tank for your home and arrange follow-up testing to confirm the system is working as intended.
