Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when it’s released into the environment and migrates through soil to groundwater. It’s widely used in degreasing and other industrial processes and can remain in the environment for long periods. Because TCE often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, Bamboo homeowners won’t necessarily detect it without testing; a lab test is the only reliable way to know whether your water contains trichloroethylene.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your household supply, many Bamboo residents prefer a system that treats every tap rather than a single faucet. Treating the whole house protects against exposure during showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice. Unlike visible contaminants, TCE is a concern because of cumulative exposure, so a whole-house solution gives homeowners across this Florida community a practical way to manage water quality once they’ve confirmed the issue.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry point, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is typically the best single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water flows through a deep carbon bed. Effective removal depends on sufficient contact time, so correctly sized carbon media and proper flow design are important. Installed at the meter or well head, this style of system treats water for every faucet and shower in Bamboo homes.
A properly designed GAC whole-house system should be sized for your Bamboo household’s water use so the carbon has enough capacity and contact time to work. Carbon won’t last forever, so replacement intervals should be based on actual use and, when possible, follow-up testing to verify continued performance. Many installations also include sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If trichloroethylene is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help Bamboo homeowners pick the right whole-house carbon configuration for their situation.
