Including filter system and high-performance Trichloroethylene filter.
Trichloroethylene, commonly called TCE, is a synthetic solvent used in industrial cleaning and degreasing that can migrate through soil into groundwater. It can remain in the environment for long periods and often has little or no taste or smell at low concentrations, so Twin Pole homeowners won’t necessarily notice it without testing. The only way to know if TCE is present in your drinking water is to have the water tested by a qualified lab.
If testing shows trichloroethylene in a household supply, many Twin Pole residents prefer a solution that protects every tap. Treating the whole house matters for daily activities like showering, bathing, brushing teeth, cooking and making ice, since TCE is a long‑term exposure concern rather than a cosmetic problem. A whole-house strategy lets you manage water quality across your home once you understand the test results.
To reduce trichloroethylene where water enters a Twin Pole home, a whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is often the single most effective filter choice. GAC removes many volatile organic compounds, including TCE, by adsorbing contaminants as water moves through a deep carbon bed. Because removal depends on contact time, the carbon media must be properly sized and the system designed for appropriate flow to achieve meaningful reduction. A whole-house GAC system treats water at every faucet and shower, so protection isn’t limited to one fixture.
A correctly designed GAC whole-house filter for trichloroethylene should be sized to match your Twin Pole household’s water use so the carbon has enough contact time to work. Carbon capacity is finite, so replacement intervals should be scheduled based on consumption and verified with follow-up testing when possible. In many homes, sediment prefilters are installed to prevent premature clogging or channeling of the carbon bed. If TCE is a concern for your family, Mr. Pure Water can help select a whole-house carbon configuration tailored to your water and home.
