Including filter system and high-performance trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene filter.
Trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can enter drinking water when industrial solvents or degreasing agents reach groundwater. Because it evaporates readily, you might notice a chemical-like smell when running hot water, especially in showers or while filling a sink. Even without an odor, many homeowners in Chain O'Lakes choose to address VOCs at low levels to reduce exposure across daily uses. Installing treatment for the whole house helps manage the contaminant in every faucet, shower and appliance.
Most residents learn about trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene from a lab report or water test rather than by sight or taste. This contaminant stays dissolved in water, so basic sediment filters and simple cartridges that remove rust or particulate won’t catch it. It can also off-gas into indoor air during hot-water activities, which is why treating only one tap won’t fully protect a household. In Chain O'Lakes — where many homes rely on mineral-rich groundwater and hard water is common — a mainline, whole-house solution offers more consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry.
The best single-filter choice for whole-house removal of trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene is a high-quality activated carbon system, typically using granular activated carbon (GAC) with sufficient contact time. Activated carbon removes many VOCs by adsorbing them onto its surface as water flows through, making it a standard option for solvent-related contamination. Properly sized GAC in a whole-house tank means treated water reaches every tap in your Chain O'Lakes home, not just the kitchen sink — which matters for reducing VOCs during showers and other high-use times.
Performance comes down to design: choose a whole-house carbon filter sized for your home's flow rate, carbon volume and required contact time. Larger carbon beds and slower flow typically improve VOC removal, while undersized systems can see earlier breakthrough as demand rises. At Mr. Pure Water we match the right carbon configuration to your plumbing needs in Lake County so the system keeps up during peak usage. With scheduled maintenance and timely media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon filter can deliver reliable reduction of trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene throughout your home.
