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 moves with groundwater, the compound can travel beyond its original source and remain in the environment for extended periods. At typical concentrations homeowners usually won’t notice a smell or taste, so testing is the only reliable way to detect it. If your Rainbow Lakes well or supply testing shows elevated cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, it’s wise to consider steps to limit household exposure.
Keeping the whole house in mind matters because water used for cooking, bathing, laundry and appliances all contribute to daily exposure. For many Rainbow Lakes residents—especially those on private wells drawing hard, mineral-rich water—a point-of-entry solution treats every faucet and appliance rather than relying on a single filter or pitcher. Treating water as it enters the home also helps reduce the chance of contaminants cycling through plumbing, water heaters, and laundry machines, giving you more consistent water quality across routines.
The most effective single-filter option for cis-1,2-dichloroethylene in a whole-house system is an activated carbon setup specified for VOC reduction. Carbon media adsorbs many organic contaminants as water flows through the tank, and when the tank is sized correctly it provides sufficient contact time to capture more of the compound before water reaches taps. For Rainbow Lakes homes with hard water, a properly sized carbon tank installed at the main line offers automatic, whole-house protection for kitchens, bathrooms and laundry.
Whole-house carbon filters are normally placed on the main incoming line so treated water feeds every branch of the plumbing. Because performance depends on flow rate, media volume and the water’s chemistry, correct sizing is important to reliably reduce cis-1,2-dichloroethylene; carbon also has a finite service life and requires periodic media replacement to maintain effectiveness. Mr. Pure Water serves Rainbow Lakes and the Marion County area and can recommend the right whole-house carbon system for your home, taking into account hard water and common local concerns, and arrange follow-up testing if you’d like verification.
