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 degreasers reach groundwater. Because it evaporates easily, you might notice a chemical-like odor when running water in your Green Point home, especially while showering or filling a sink. Even without a detectable smell, many homeowners choose to address VOCs at low concentrations. A whole-house filter treats all the water used daily, helping reduce household exposure across every faucet and fixture.
Most Green Point residents become aware of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a lab test or a utility notice rather than by sight or taste. This contaminant is dissolved in the water and won’t be removed by basic screens or cartridge filters designed for sediment, rust, or hardness. Because it can transfer from water into indoor air during hot-water use, treating only one tap won’t fully address the issue; whole-house treatment at the main line gives more consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry throughout your home.
The most effective single-filter choice for whole-house removal of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene is a quality activated carbon system, typically using granular activated carbon (GAC) with adequate contact time. Activated carbon adsorbs many VOCs as water flows through the media, which is why it’s commonly used for solvent-related contaminants. When sized correctly for a Green Point home, a whole-house carbon filter ensures treated water at every tap—not just the kitchen—so VOCs are reduced during showers and other high-use activities.
Performance of a whole-house carbon filter depends on proper design: flow rate, carbon volume, and contact time all matter. Larger carbon beds and slower flow improve VOC removal, while undersized systems can allow breakthrough during heavy use. Mr. Pure Water will match the right carbon configuration to your Green Point plumbing and household demand so the system performs during peak flows. With scheduled maintenance and timely media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon system delivers reliable, home-wide reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene.
