Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industry that can migrate from contaminated sites through soil into groundwater and drinking supplies. It’s often associated with degreasing and other industrial activities and can remain in the environment for long periods. Because low concentrations usually lack obvious taste or smell, Lois homeowners won’t be able to detect it by sensory cues; the only way to know if TCE is present is to have your water tested.
When TCE is identified in a household water source, many families in Lois prefer a solution that treats every outlet, not just a single tap. Whole-house treatment addresses everyday exposures from showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and ice makers. Unlike aesthetic problems, concerns about trichloroethylene come from long-term exposure, so installing treatment that protects the entire home can provide broader peace of mind once you know your water’s condition.
To reduce trichloroethylene as water enters a Lois 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 flows through a deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, the carbon media must be properly sized and the system designed for appropriate flow to achieve meaningful reduction. Installed at the main line, this style of system treats every faucet and shower in your home.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house system for trichloroethylene should match your household’s water use in Lois so the carbon has adequate contact time to work effectively. Carbon eventually becomes exhausted, so replacement intervals should be set based on your usage and validated with follow-up testing when possible. Many installations include sediment prefiltration to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help select a whole-house carbon configuration that fits your home and water conditions.
