Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial degreasing that can migrate into groundwater if released into the environment. Because it can persist in soil and aquifers and often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners in Ankona and nearby Brevard County won’t detect it without testing. The only reliable way to know whether your well or supply contains trichloroethylene is to have the water analyzed by a qualified lab.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your water, many Ankona homeowners prefer a solution that protects every tap — showers, baths, sinks and appliances — rather than treating a single fixture. That whole-house perspective matters because TCE concerns are about repeated exposure over time, not a noticeable taste or color. Installing a system at the point of entry gives you consistent protection throughout your humid subtropical coastal property, whether your water comes from a private well or another local source.
For treating trichloroethylene where water first enters an Ankona home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water moves through a deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, a correctly sized carbon media and proper flow design are essential to achieve meaningful reduction while treating every faucet and shower in your home.
A properly designed GAC whole-house system in hard-water areas like Ankona should match your household’s flow and usage so the carbon has adequate contact time to work. Carbon eventually becomes saturated, so media replacement schedules should be based on your water use and confirmed with follow-up testing when possible. Many homes in this part of coastal Florida also benefit from sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help size and configure a whole-house carbon system that fits your home and local water conditions.
