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 chemicals reach groundwater. Because it evaporates readily, you might notice a chemical-like odor when running water — particularly during showers or while filling sinks. Even without a noticeable smell, many homeowners in Fidelis choose to address VOCs because they’re typically evaluated at low concentrations; treating water at the whole-house level helps reduce exposure across all the water you use every day.
Most people discover trans-1,2-dichloroethylene through a lab water test or a utility report rather than by sight or taste. Unlike visible sediment or hard-water minerals, this compound stays dissolved and won’t be removed by simple screens or standard cartridge filters that trap dirt and rust. It can also transfer from water into indoor air during hot-water use, so treating only one tap doesn’t fully address the issue. Installing treatment at the main line gives Fidelis homeowners consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry throughout the house.
The most effective 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 adequate contact time. Activated carbon adsorbs many VOCs onto its surface as water flows through, which is why it’s a common solution for solvent-related contaminants. A properly sized whole-house carbon filter ensures every tap in your Fidelis home receives treated water, not just the kitchen sink, which matters for reducing VOCs during showers and other frequent uses.
Filter performance hinges on proper design, so choose a whole-house carbon system sized for your household flow rate, carbon volume, and contact time. Larger carbon beds and slower flow through the tank generally boost VOC removal, while undersized units can allow early breakthrough during heavy use. Mr. Pure Water will match the right carbon configuration to your Fidelis plumbing and peak usage needs; with routine maintenance and timely media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon filter offers dependable reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene across the home.
