Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used historically in degreasing and industrial processes that can migrate through soil into groundwater. Because it can linger in the environment and often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, families in Southchase and the surrounding Orange County area wouldn’t detect it without testing. If you’re concerned about TCE in your household water, a laboratory test is the only reliable way to know what’s present.
When trichloroethylene is a potential issue, many Southchase homeowners prefer a solution that protects every tap — not just the kitchen sink. Whole-house treatment matters for daily activities like showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking, and filling appliances that make ice. Unlike visible problems or unpleasant tastes, TCE is mainly a long-term exposure concern, so installing treatment for the whole home can give you ongoing peace of mind once you’ve confirmed the contaminant is present.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters a Southchase home, the most effective single whole-house option is granular activated carbon (GAC). GAC systems remove many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water flows through a deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, it’s important to size the carbon media and plumbing for proper flow so the system can achieve meaningful reduction. A whole-house GAC filter treats every faucet and shower, offering homewide protection rather than point-of-use coverage.
A properly designed GAC whole-house filter for trichloroethylene should be matched to your household’s consumption so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work effectively. Carbon eventually becomes exhausted, so media replacement schedules should follow your usage and be guided by periodic testing when possible. In Southchase homes — where hard groundwater is common in the Orlando area and sediment or mineral scale can affect plumbing — adding pretreatment like sediment filtration can help the carbon bed perform reliably. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your water and recommend a whole-house carbon setup tailored to your home and needs.
