Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, often called TCE, is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when it’s released into the environment and migrates through soil into groundwater. Historically used in degreasing and other industrial applications, it can persist once present and usually has little taste or odor at low concentrations, so you can’t rely on smell to detect it. The only way to know whether your Franwood Pines water contains trichloroethylene is through professional testing.
When trichloroethylene is a concern, many Franwood Pines homeowners prefer a solution that treats every tap — not just the kitchen faucet. Whole-house treatment protects showers, laundry, cooking water, and ice makers, and addresses exposure that occurs through daily use like bathing and toothbrushing. Because TCE is typically an invisible, long-term exposure risk rather than an obvious nuisance, taking a homewide approach gives you consistent protection once testing identifies the issue.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters a Franwood Pines home, the most effective single whole-house option is a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water passes through a deep carbon bed. Contact time and properly sized media are key to good removal, so a system designed for your household flow rates is important. Installed at the point of entry, this approach treats water for every faucet and shower in the house.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house system for Franwood Pines should match your family’s water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work effectively. Carbon media becomes exhausted and must be replaced on a schedule based on usage and, ideally, follow-up testing to verify continued performance. Many installations also include prefiltration for sediment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If trichloroethylene is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help select a whole-house carbon configuration tailored to your home.
