Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial degreasing that can migrate from soil into groundwater. Because it can persist in the environment and often has little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, you wouldn’t necessarily notice it just by sampling a glass. The only reliable way to know whether your water contains trichloroethylene is to have it tested — a good first step for Avon Park homeowners who rely on local wells or municipal supplies in Highlands County.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your water, many Avon Park residents choose a solution that treats every outlet in the house rather than just a single faucet. Whole-house treatment covers showers, baths, laundry, cooking and ice-makers, which matters because TCE is a contaminant where reducing overall exposure is the goal rather than fixing a visible nuisance. For households across Avon Park — from Downtown Avon Park to Avon Park Lakes — a whole-home approach gives consistent protection throughout your plumbing system.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the point where water enters your property, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is widely regarded as the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds like TCE by adsorbing them as water flows through a deep carbon bed, so correct media depth and flow rate matter for performance. A properly sized GAC system treats every faucet and shower in an Avon Park home, delivering broad coverage for homes in our humid subtropical climate and the hard-water conditions common in Central Florida.
A GAC whole-house system should be sized to your household’s water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to capture TCE; carbon media does become exhausted, so replacement schedules depend on use and follow-up testing. In many Avon Park homes, adding sediment pretreatment helps protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling — especially given our mineral-rich (hard) groundwater. If trichloroethylene is a concern for your family, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon configuration tailored to Avon Park plumbing and water use.
