Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial degreasing that can migrate through soil into groundwater. Because it often has little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, families in Dellwood may not notice it without testing. The only reliable way to know whether your well or municipal supply contains trichloroethylene is a proper water test performed to identify this contaminant.
If trichloroethylene is detected, many Dellwood homeowners prefer a solution that protects the whole house — not just the kitchen tap. Treating every faucet and shower matters for bathing, cooking, making ice, and everyday hygiene, since TCE is a long-term exposure concern rather than an obvious nuisance you can smell or taste. A whole-house system gives you consistent coverage throughout your Dellwood home once testing shows it’s needed.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the point where water enters a Dellwood home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter option. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds like TCE by adsorbing them as water moves through a deep carbon bed, and meaningful removal depends on sufficient contact time provided by properly sized media and flow design. Installed at the main line, this style of system treats water for every shower and faucet in the house.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house filter for Dellwood should match your household’s water use so the carbon has enough contact time to be effective. Carbon will eventually need replacement, so media change intervals should be based on your usage and confirmed with follow-up testing when possible. Many installations also add sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon setup tailored to your Dellwood water and home.
