cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene in Perkins Florida Water

Unhealthy Levels of cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene in the Water Supply of Perkins Florida Homes

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 dissolves and can travel away from its original source, it may remain in aquifers over long periods. At the concentrations usually found, you’re unlikely to notice it by smell or taste, so testing is the reliable way to detect it. If your Perkins water test shows elevated cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, it’s wise to consider options that reduce household exposure.

What you use water for around the house matters — cooking, bathing, and laundry all involve the same supply. Treating cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene at the point where water enters a Perkins home ensures every tap benefits, rather than managing it at a single faucet. A whole-house solution also helps prevent VOCs from circulating through appliances and plumbing, giving more uniform water quality for daily routines across your property.
