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 in your Lake View Point home—showers and sink fills are common times it becomes noticeable. Even if you don’t smell anything, homeowners often choose to address VOCs at low concentrations, and a whole-house strategy treats all the water you use every day rather than just one tap.
Most Lake View Point residents learn about trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a lab test or a utility notice rather than by sight or taste. This contaminant is dissolved in water, so basic sediment screens and standard dirt filters won’t remove it. Because VOCs can transfer from water into indoor air when you use hot water, treating only the kitchen faucet may leave other areas of the home exposed; installing treatment at the main line gives more consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry throughout the house.
The best single-filter whole-house option for removing trans-1,2-dichloroethylene is an activated carbon system—typically granular activated carbon (GAC) designed with sufficient contact time. Activated carbon adsorbs many solvent-related VOCs onto its surface as water flows through, which is why it’s a common choice for this group of contaminants. When sized and installed properly in a Lake View Point home, a whole-house carbon filter treats every tap so showers and other high-use activities receive reduced VOC levels, not just the kitchen sink.
Performance hinges on proper design: pick a whole-house carbon system based on your home’s flow rate, required carbon volume, and contact time. Larger carbon beds and slower flow through the tank generally improve VOC reduction, while undersized units risk earlier breakthrough under heavy use. At Mr. Pure Water, we size carbon configurations to match Lake View Point plumbing and peak demand, and recommend regular maintenance and media replacement so the whole-house activated carbon filter continues to reduce trans-1,2-dichloroethylene reliably.
