Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent that can enter drinking water when it moves from contaminated soil into groundwater or other sources. Historically used for degreasing and industrial cleaning, it can remain in the environment for long periods. Because TCE often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, homeowners in Pace can’t rely on senses alone — testing is the only way to know if it’s present in your water.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in a household water supply, many Pace residents prefer a solution that protects every faucet and shower rather than just a single point of use. That whole-house perspective covers daily activities like bathing, brushing teeth, cooking, and making ice. TCE is primarily a concern because of long-term exposure rather than immediate aesthetic problems, so treating the entire plumbing system can give you broader peace of mind across your home.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry, 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. Contact time and correct sizing matter, so a system designed to match Pace household flow rates and usage will provide the best chance of meaningful removal. Installed at the point of entry, this approach protects every tap and shower in your home.
A properly configured GAC whole-house system should be sized for your household’s water demand so the carbon has adequate contact time to capture trichloroethylene. Carbon media becomes exhausted over time, so replacement schedules should reflect your actual usage and be adjusted based on follow-up testing where possible. Many installations in the Pace area also include sediment pretreatment to prevent premature clogging or channeling of the carbon bed. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help you pick the right whole-house carbon setup for your home.
