Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly referred to as TCE, is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when it’s released into the environment and moves through soil into groundwater. It’s widely used historically for degreasing and similar industrial tasks and can remain in water for extended periods. Because TCE often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, Broxson homeowners wouldn’t detect it without testing; laboratory analysis is the only reliable way to know if your water contains trichloroethylene.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your supply, many Broxson residents prefer a solution that protects every faucet and shower, not only the kitchen sink. Whole-house treatment covers everyday activities like bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and filling ice makers. Unlike issues that cause visible changes, TCE is primarily a concern because of ongoing exposure, so treating water at the point it enters the home gives consistent protection throughout your household once you know there’s a problem.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is generally the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water moves through a deep bed of carbon. Because removal depends on sufficient contact time, systems in Broxson should be sized with appropriate carbon depth and flow rates to achieve meaningful reduction. Installed at the point of entry, this style of system treats water for every tap and shower in your home.
A properly designed GAC whole-house unit for trichloroethylene needs to match your household’s water demand so the carbon has enough time to capture contaminants. Carbon’s capacity is finite, so media replacement should follow your usage patterns and be guided by periodic testing when possible. In many homes a sediment prefilter is added to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern in Broxson, Mr. Pure Water can help size a whole-house carbon configuration that fits your water use and home layout.
