Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industry that can migrate through soil into groundwater and sometimes reach drinking supplies. Because TCE can persist in the environment and often has little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners in Lakewood may not notice a problem until testing is done. If you’re concerned about solvents like TCE in your water, the only reliable way to know is to have the water tested.
When TCE is present in a household supply, many Lakewood residents prefer a solution that protects the whole house rather than a single tap. Whole-house treatment matters for everyday activities — showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking, and making ice — because exposure adds up over time even when contamination isn’t obvious. Once testing identifies trichloroethylene in your water, a comprehensive system lets you address exposure at every fixture.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters a Lakewood home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is generally the most effective single-filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water passes through a substantial carbon bed. Effective removal depends on adequate contact time, so correctly sized carbon media and proper flow design are important. Installed at the main line, this style of system treats water for every faucet and shower in your home.
A properly designed GAC whole-house system for trichloroethylene should be sized to match your household’s water use in Lakewood so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work. Carbon eventually reaches capacity, so media replacement schedules should reflect your usage and, when possible, be guided by follow-up testing to verify continued performance. Many homeowners also add sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If you’re focused on TCE, Mr. Pure Water can assess your Lakewood home and recommend the right whole-house carbon setup for your water and routine.
