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 Kendale Lakes home—especially during showers or when filling a sink. Even if you don’t detect a smell, VOCs are often evaluated at very low concentrations, and many homeowners prefer a whole-house approach to limit exposure from all taps and appliances.
Most Kendale Lakes residents find out about trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a lab test or a utility report rather than by sight or taste. Unlike visible sediment or the hard water that’s common around Miami-Dade County, this contaminant dissolves in water and won’t be captured by simple screens or basic cartridge filters designed for dirt and rust. Because it can transfer from water into indoor air during hot-water use, treating only a single faucet won’t address exposures from showers and laundry; installing protection at the main service line delivers more consistent coverage for drinking, cooking, and bathing.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for reducing 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 onto its surface as municipal water flows through the media, which is why it’s commonly specified for solvent-related contaminants. When sized correctly for a Kendale Lakes home, a whole-house carbon tank supplies treated water to every tap—not just the kitchen—so showers and other high-use activities receive the same VOC reduction as drinking water.
Performance hinges on proper design: choose a whole-house carbon filter sized for your home’s flow rate, carbon volume, and needed contact time. Larger carbon beds and slower flow reduce the chance of VOC breakthrough, while undersized units can struggle during peak demand. At Mr. Pure Water we match the right carbon configuration to the plumbing needs of Kendale Lakes homes—accounting for local conditions like hard municipal water—so the system performs when your household is busiest; with routine maintenance and timely media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon filter gives dependable reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene.
