Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, also called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial degreasing that can migrate through soil into groundwater and into drinking supplies. It can linger in the environment and often has little to no taste or smell at low concentrations, so you wouldn’t necessarily notice it by using your tap. Home testing is the only way to know whether your water contains trichloroethylene, whether you live near Waterford Lakes, Avalon Park, or elsewhere in Alafaya in Orange County.
When TCE is a concern, many Alafaya homeowners prefer a solution that protects every faucet and shower rather than just a single point-of-use. Whole-house treatment addresses daily activities like showering, bathing, brushing teeth and cooking, where exposure can occur throughout the house. Because trichloroethylene’s risks come from repeated exposure rather than obvious taste or cloudiness, taking a whole-home approach gives you broader coverage and peace of mind across your property.
A whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is commonly the most effective single-filter option for reducing trichloroethylene at the point your water enters an Alafaya home. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water passes through a deep carbon bed; contact time and properly sized media are key to good performance. Installed at the main line, this type of system treats water for every tap and shower, which is important for households across our humid subtropical region where hard water can also affect fixtures and appliances.
To work well in an Alafaya house, a GAC whole-home system should be sized for your household’s flow and water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to capture TCE. Carbon does eventually exhaust, so media replacement should follow your usage and, ideally, periodic testing to confirm ongoing removal. Many homeowners in the Orlando metro add sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging—especially where hard water contributes mineral and particulate load. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help design a whole-house carbon setup tailored to your home and water conditions.
