Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a manufactured solvent that can migrate from contaminated soil into groundwater and drinking supplies. It’s widely used in degreasing and other industrial processes and can persist in the environment for long periods. Because TCE often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners in Lorida and the Lake Placid area wouldn’t necessarily detect it without testing. The only way to know if your well or supply contains trichloroethylene is to have the water tested.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your water, many Lorida homeowners prefer a solution that protects every tap in the house. Whole-house treatment matters for everyday activities — showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and filling ice makers — so you’re not relying on a single point-of-use device. Unlike visible water issues, TCE is a long-term exposure concern, and taking a whole-home approach gives you consistent control over water quality throughout your property.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the service entry, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the most effective single-filter option. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing them as water flows through a deep carbon bed; adequate contact time and correctly sized media are key to performance. A properly designed GAC system treats water for every faucet and shower in Lorida homes, so protection is comprehensive rather than limited to one fixture.
A GAC whole-house system should be sized to match your household’s water use and the conditions common to the Lorida/Lake Placid area, where many homes rely on private wells and hard water can cause scale. Carbon will eventually be exhausted, so replacement schedules should reflect your usage and be guided by follow-up testing when possible. In some cases, adding pretreatment such as sediment filtration helps preserve carbon life by preventing clogging and channeling. If trichloroethylene is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon setup suited to your water and home.
