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 readily, you might notice a chemical-like smell when running water in the home—showers and sinks can make that smell more apparent. Even if your water looks and tastes normal, VOCs are often evaluated at very low concentrations, so Taft homeowners who are concerned often choose a whole-house approach to reduce exposure from all faucets and appliances.
Most Taft residents find out about trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a lab test or their utility’s report rather than by sight or taste. Because this contaminant is dissolved, it won’t be removed by simple screens or cartridge filters designed for sediment or the hard water minerals common in Central Florida groundwater. It can also off-gas 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 consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry across your home.
The single most effective whole-house filter for reducing 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 passes through, which is why it’s a common choice for solvent-related contaminants. A properly sized whole-house carbon unit treats every tap in your Taft home, so showers and other high-use activities receive the same VOC reduction as the kitchen sink.
Performance depends on design, so choose a whole-house carbon filter sized for your household flow rate, carbon volume, and the contact time the media provides. Larger carbon beds and slower flow improve VOC removal, while undersized systems may let contaminants break through during peak demand. Mr. Pure Water can match the carbon configuration to your Taft home’s plumbing and the hard groundwater you commonly see in Central Florida, and with scheduled maintenance and media replacement the system will deliver reliable, home-wide reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene.
