Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, frequently abbreviated TCE, is a synthetic solvent used historically in industrial degreasing that can migrate into groundwater when released to the environment. It can persist for long periods and often has no noticeable taste or smell at low concentrations, so Tiger Point homeowners may not detect it without testing. The only reliable way to know if your water contains trichloroethylene is to have it tested by a qualified lab.
If testing finds trichloroethylene in your water, many Tiger Point residents prefer a solution that protects every tap — not just the kitchen. Whole-house treatment addresses exposures from showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and ice-making, since TCE is a long-term exposure concern rather than a clearly visible or smelly problem. Taking a whole-home approach gives you consistent coverage throughout your house once you know there’s an issue.
To reduce trichloroethylene at the main water entry point, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is generally 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. Proper sizing and flow design matter because contact time in the media affects performance. Installed at the main line, this style of system treats water for every faucet and shower in your Tiger Point home.
A properly designed GAC whole-house system should be sized for your household’s water use in Tiger Point so the carbon has sufficient contact time to work. Carbon media eventually exhausts, so replacement schedules should be based on actual usage and, when practical, follow-up testing to verify continued removal. Many installations also include sediment prefilters to protect the carbon bed from clogging or channeling. If trichloroethylene is your concern, Mr. Pure Water can help select a whole-house carbon configuration tailored to your home.
