Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is an industrial solvent that can enter drinking water when released into the environment and trickles down through soil into groundwater. It’s used in degreasing and other manufacturing processes and can remain in the environment for long periods. Because TCE often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners around Oviedo may not detect it without testing; a water test is the only way to know if trichloroethylene is present.
When trichloroethylene is found in a household supply, many Oviedo residents prefer a solution that treats every faucet and shower rather than just a single point of use. Treating the whole house matters for daily activities like bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice. Unlike scale or cloudiness that you can see or feel—common concerns in our hard water—TCE is often an invisible long-term exposure issue, so a whole-house strategy gives comprehensive protection once you’ve confirmed the problem.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters an Oviedo 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 deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, the carbon media must be properly sized and the system designed for the household’s flow rate to achieve meaningful reduction. Installed at the main line, this style of system protects every tap throughout your Seminole County home.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house filter for trichloroethylene should match your family’s daily water use so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work. Carbon eventually becomes exhausted, so media replacement schedules should reflect usage and, when possible, be guided by follow-up testing to verify continued performance. Many Oviedo homes also benefit from sediment pretreatment to prevent clogging and channeling of the carbon bed—especially important in hard-water areas—to keep the system operating efficiently; Mr. Pure Water can help design the right whole-house carbon setup for your home.
