Including filter system and high-performance trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene filter.
Trans-1,2-dichloroethylene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can reach drinking water when industrial solvents or degreasers enter groundwater. Because it evaporates readily, you might notice a chemical-like odor when water runs in your Franjo home, especially during showers or while filling a sink. Even without a noticeable smell, many homeowners choose to address VOCs at low concentrations. Treating water at the whole-house level helps limit exposure from all taps and fixtures used every day.
Most Franjo residents learn about trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a laboratory water test or a utility report rather than by sight or taste. This contaminant is dissolved in the water, so ordinary sediment filters and basic cartridge screens for rust and grit won’t remove it. Because VOCs can transfer from water into indoor air during hot-water activities, treating only one faucet leaves other uses unprotected. Installing treatment at the main line gives consistent coverage for drinking, cooking, bathing and laundry throughout the house.
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 adequate contact time. Activated carbon adsorbs many solvent-related VOCs as water flows through the media, which makes it a common solution for contaminants like trans-1,2-dichloroethylene. When sized correctly for a Franjo home, a whole-house carbon filter delivers treated water to every tap rather than only to a single point of use—important when reducing VOC exposure during showers and other high-flow activities.
Performance hinges on proper design, so choose a whole-house carbon filter based on your flow rate, the carbon bed volume, and the contact time water spends in the media. Larger carbon beds and slower flow generally enhance VOC removal, while undersized tanks can let contaminants break through when demand rises. Mr. Pure Water will match the right carbon configuration to your Franjo plumbing and peak usage patterns. With scheduled maintenance and timely media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon system can provide dependable reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene throughout your home.
