Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is an industrial solvent that can leach into groundwater after being released into the environment. It’s been widely used for degreasing and similar applications, and when present in water it can persist without an obvious taste or smell at low concentrations. Because you likely won’t notice TCE by scent or flavor, testing is the only reliable way for Sunrise homeowners to know whether their water contains trichloroethylene.
Many Sunrise residents prefer treatment that protects every tap — not just the kitchen — so showers, baths, teeth brushing, cooking and ice are all covered. Unlike visible problems like discoloration or scale from hard water, TCE is a long-term exposure concern rather than a cosmetic nuisance. Once testing confirms a problem, a whole-house strategy gives homeowners across Broward County a consistent way to manage water quality throughout the entire house.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is typically the single most effective option. 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, proper sizing of the carbon media and system flow design are essential for meaningful reduction. Installed at the point of entry, a GAC system treats water for every faucet and shower in your Sunrise home.
A correctly sized GAC whole-house filter should match your household’s daily water demand so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work. Carbon media eventually reaches capacity, so replacement schedules should be based on usage and, when possible, follow-up testing to verify continued performance. In Sunrise, where municipal water is typically hard and scale can be an issue, adding sediment pretreatment can help protect the carbon bed from clogging and channeling. If TCE is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can recommend a whole-house carbon setup tailored to your home and usage patterns.
