Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent that can reach drinking water when it’s released into the environment and migrates through soil into groundwater. It’s widely used in degreasing and other industrial settings and can remain in the environment for long periods. Because low concentrations often have no distinct taste or smell, homeowners around Lake Park — from Kelsey Park to the Lakeside neighborhoods — wouldn’t notice TCE without testing; a laboratory water test is the only reliable way to know if it’s present.
When TCE is detected in a household supply, many Lake Park residents prefer a solution that treats every tap rather than only a single point like the kitchen sink. Whole-house treatment covers showers, laundry, dishwashers, ice makers and all faucets — important for everyday uses such as bathing, brushing teeth and cooking. Because trichloroethylene is a contaminant where exposure over time is the main concern, taking a whole-home approach gives families across Palm Beach County a consistent layer of protection once testing identifies a problem.
To reduce trichloroethylene as water enters a Lake Park home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is often the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water moves through a deep bed of carbon. Because removal depends on contact time, the carbon media must be properly sized and the system plumbed for appropriate flow to achieve meaningful reductions. Installed at the point of entry, this configuration treats every faucet and shower in your home.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house system for trichloroethylene should match your household’s typical water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work. Carbon capacity is finite, so replacement intervals should be based on your usage patterns and follow-up testing when possible. In Lake Park, where municipal water is commonly hard and can contribute to scale, adding sediment or other pretreatment can help protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is a concern in your home, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon setup matched to your water and household needs.
