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 move into groundwater. Because it can travel away from its original source and persist, homeowners often can’t detect it by taste or smell at common concentrations—testing is how it’s usually found. If testing in Lamont indicates elevated cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, taking steps to reduce exposure throughout the house is a prudent choice.
Contaminants in tap water affect more than just drinking—cooking, bathing, and laundry all use the same supply. Treating water where it enters a Lamont home means every faucet and appliance receives the same protection, preventing VOCs like cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene from circulating through plumbing and household systems. A whole-house solution creates consistent water quality for daily routines instead of relying on a single faucet filter or pitcher.
For cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, an activated carbon whole-house filter is the most effective single-filter option. Carbon media adsorbs many organic compounds as water flows through, giving it strong performance against VOCs. When the carbon tank is sized correctly to provide adequate contact time, it can capture more of the compound before water reaches your fixtures, quietly protecting kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry throughout a Lamont residence.
A whole-house carbon system is installed on the main water line so incoming water is treated before it splits to the rest of the house. Because reduction of cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene depends on flow rate, media volume, and your water’s chemistry, proper sizing and maintenance are essential to maintain effectiveness. Carbon media also loses capacity over time and requires periodic replacement. Mr. Pure Water can help Lamont homeowners choose the right whole-house carbon unit for their property and arrange follow-up testing to confirm improvement if you’d like.
