Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used historically in industrial cleaning and degreasing that can migrate through soil into groundwater and sometimes affect drinking water. Because it often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners around Lake Lorraine might not detect it without testing. The only reliable way to know if your water contains trichloroethylene is to have it tested by a qualified lab.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your water, many Lake Lorraine homeowners prefer a solution that protects every faucet and shower rather than just the kitchen tap. Treating the whole house matters for everyday activities like bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice—especially since TCE is a contaminant where long‑term exposure, not immediate aesthetic issues, is the concern. Installing a whole-house system gives you comprehensive control over the water used throughout your home once you know the issue exists.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the point where water enters a Lake Lorraine home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is typically the most effective single‑filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water flows through a deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, a properly sized carbon media and system flow design are important to achieve meaningful reductions. A correctly installed GAC whole‑home unit treats water for every tap and shower, providing protection throughout the house.
A Lake Lorraine whole‑house GAC system should be sized to match your household’s water use so the carbon has adequate contact time to work effectively. Carbon eventually becomes exhausted, so media replacement should follow usage patterns and, when feasible, be confirmed with follow‑up testing to ensure continued performance. Many homes also add sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging or channeling. If trichloroethylene is a concern for your household, Mr. Pure Water can help design a whole‑house carbon solution that fits your Lake Lorraine water and your home’s needs.
