Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is an industrial solvent that can migrate through soil into groundwater and reach drinking supplies. Because it’s man-made and used for degreasing and other industrial tasks, it can persist where it has entered the environment. At low concentrations TCE usually won’t have a noticeable taste or smell, so residents of Century Village shouldn’t rely on senses alone—testing is the only way to know whether your home’s water contains trichloroethylene.
If trichloroethylene is present in your water, many homeowners in Century Village prefer a solution that protects every tap—from showers and baths to kitchen faucets and ice makers. Because TCE is a contaminant where exposure over time is the concern rather than an obvious nuisance, treating the whole house ensures you reduce contact during everyday activities like brushing teeth and cooking. A full-house approach gives consistent, homewide coverage once testing identifies the issue.
The most effective single-filter choice for treating trichloroethylene at the point of entry is a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) system. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water flows through a deep carbon bed, and removal depends on sufficient contact time. For Century Village homes—where Palm Beach County’s hard water can also contribute to limescale—selecting a properly sized carbon media and flow design is important to achieve meaningful reduction at every faucet and shower.
A GAC whole-house filter must be sized to your household’s flow and usage so the carbon has time to adsorb trichloroethylene; capacity is finite, so media replacement should follow your water use and be guided by periodic testing. In many installations, a sediment prefilter is added to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling, which helps performance in hard-water areas like Palm Beach County. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon setup tailored to Century Village properties and the way you use water in your home.
