Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, often called TCE, is a manufactured solvent that can reach drinking water when released into the environment and migrates through soil into groundwater. It’s commonly associated with degreasing and other industrial activities and can remain in water for long periods. Because TCE may have little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, Franklin Park homeowners won’t necessarily notice it without testing — the only reliable way to know whether your water contains trichloroethylene or TCE.
If trichloroethylene is present in a Franklin Park house’s water, many families prefer a solution that treats every tap rather than a single point-of-use system. Treating the whole house protects everyday activities like showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice. Unlike visible issues, TCE is a concern because of ongoing exposure, not appearance or taste, so once testing shows a problem a whole-house strategy can provide consistent protection throughout your home.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters a Franklin Park home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water flows through a deep bed of carbon. Contact time and properly sized media are key to meaningful removal, so correct sizing and flow design matter — and a whole-house GAC system treats every faucet and shower for comprehensive coverage.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house filter for trichloroethylene should match your Franklin Park household’s water use so the carbon has enough contact time to work. Carbon media is finite, so replacement schedules should reflect usage and, when possible, be guided by follow-up testing to verify performance. In many homes a sediment prefilter is added to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help you pick a whole-house carbon setup tailored to your water source and plumbing conditions.
