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—showers and hot taps often make it more apparent. Even without an odor, VOCs are measured at low levels, and many Whites Landing homeowners choose a whole-house approach to reduce exposure across all everyday uses of water.
Most people first hear about trans-1,2-dichloroethylene from a water test or their utility’s report rather than seeing or tasting it. This contaminant is dissolved in the water and won’t be removed by simple sediment screens or standard cartridge filters for rust and grit. It can also transfer from water into indoor air during hot-water use, so treating only one faucet won’t protect breathing air during showers. Installing treatment at the main line gives Whites Landing homes consistent protection for drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry.
The single most effective whole-house filter type for removing trans-1,2-dichloroethylene is a high-quality activated carbon system, commonly using granular activated carbon (GAC) with adequate contact time. Activated carbon adsorbs many VOCs onto its surface as water flows through, which is why it’s the preferred choice for solvent-related contaminants. When sized and installed correctly, a whole-house carbon filter treats water at every tap in your Whites Landing home, so VOCs are reduced not just at the kitchen sink but during showers and other high-use activities.
Performance hinges on proper design—select a whole-house carbon filter sized for your household flow rate, carbon volume, and contact time. Larger carbon beds and slower flow increase VOC removal, while undersized systems can see earlier breakthrough as demand rises. Mr. Pure Water will match the right carbon configuration to your Whites Landing plumbing and peak usage, and with routine maintenance and media replacement, a whole-house activated carbon system can deliver dependable reduction of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene throughout your home.
