Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used historically in industrial degreasing that can migrate from soil into groundwater. Because it can linger in the environment and often has little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners in Montivilla won’t necessarily notice it without testing. The only way to know if your household water contains trichloroethylene is to have your water professionally tested.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in your water, many Montivilla residents prefer a solution that protects every tap. Treating the whole house covers showers, baths, teeth brushing, cooking and ice—areas where exposure can occur during daily life. Because TCE is a contaminant of long-term exposure concern rather than an immediately obvious nuisance, a whole-house treatment strategy gives you consistent protection throughout your Florida home.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the point the water enters a Montivilla 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 substantial carbon bed. Proper sizing and flow design are important because contact time with the carbon affects removal, and a correctly configured GAC system treats water for every faucet and shower in the house.
A GAC whole-house system for trichloroethylene should be sized to match your Montivilla household’s water use so the carbon has adequate contact time. Carbon media will eventually be spent, so replacement intervals should be determined by usage and confirmed with follow-up testing when possible. Many homes also benefit from sediment pretreatment to protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help recommend the right whole-house carbon configuration for your home.
