Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial degreasing that can migrate into groundwater and wells. Because it doesn’t always produce taste or smell at low concentrations, families in Jerome and nearby Collier County may not notice it without testing. The only way to know whether TCE or its other common names are present in your household water is to have the water tested by a qualified laboratory.
When TCE is identified in a home’s water supply, many homeowners in Jerome prefer a solution that treats every faucet and shower rather than just a single point of use. A whole-house system protects everyday activities like bathing, brushing teeth, cooking, and making ice—important in our humid South Florida climate where groundwater wells can be mineral-rich. Because trichloroethylene poses a long-term exposure concern more than an immediately obvious nuisance, treating water at the entry point gives broad, consistent protection throughout the house.
The most effective single whole-house filter for reducing trichloroethylene at the point of entry is a granular activated carbon (GAC) system. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water flows through a deep carbon bed, so proper contact time and correctly sized media are key. Installed where water enters your Jerome home, a GAC whole-house filter treats every tap and shower rather than just one fixture.
A properly designed GAC whole-house system should be sized for your household’s flow and water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to adsorb trichloroethylene. Because carbon media becomes exhausted over time, replacement schedules should be based on your usage and confirmed by periodic testing; in Collier County homes with hard, mineral-rich groundwater, pretreatment such as sediment filtration can help prevent the carbon bed from clogging. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can assess your Jerome home and recommend the right whole-house carbon configuration for your water profile.
