WSP Whole House 1,2,3-TCP Reduction System

Water pipes stained or smelling odd at the entry point to your home? The WSP Whole House 1,2,3-TCP Reduction System helps reduce 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP) and other common tastes and odors for cleaner water throughout your household.

What a plumber first notices in your water supply

A plumber looking at your home's main water line might spot discolored stain marks, or notice an unusual chemical smell coming from the plumbing. This often points to a contamination called 1,2,3-trichloropropane—commonly known as TCP—in the water. TCP is a synthetic chemical sometimes found in groundwater or well water, resulting from industrial activity or contamination. The simplest way to confirm its presence is through a professional water test that specifically checks for TCP levels.

How the control head manages cleaning and upkeep

At the top of this system, an automatic control valve regularly performs a backwash cycle. This process lifts and rinses the treatment media inside the tank, keeping it free from buildup that would reduce water flow or effectiveness. You can trust this control to maintain the system’s performance without manual intervention. The valve model used is a reliable 5600 SXT backwashing control valve, designed to balance thorough cleaning with water efficiency.

The media inside the tank: how it treats your water

Inside the tank, a combination of media targets several water quality issues. High-capacity cation exchange resin helps reduce hardness, which prevents scale buildup. The granular activated carbon and deep-bed coconut-shell activated carbon work to strip out chlorine, chloramine, 1,2,3-TCP, and many volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that affect taste and odor. This layered media setup is particularly suited to tackle chemical contaminants alongside routine water quality concerns.

The tank’s design and what it means for your home

The treatment takes place inside a robust whole-house tank designed to handle the volume of water entering your home. While we confirm the exact tank size during system sizing based on your home's water use, it’s built to fit typical single-family homes. The tank’s pressure vessel carries a lifetime warranty, so you can count on long-term durability under normal household conditions.

Who this system fits best in a household setting

This system suits a typical single-family home with standard water usage. It’s designed to provide whole-house treatment, meaning every tap inside benefits from reduced TCP, chlorine, and unpleasant tastes or odors. For larger homes or properties with unusually high water demand, a bigger system might be necessary. Conversely, smaller homes with low water use might find a more compact solution better suited.

What’s included and your next step

The package includes the whole working system: the control valve, the treated media, and the pressure vessel. You’ll also receive a bypass valve to isolate the system for servicing while keeping water flowing to your home, and a 10-foot discharge hose for the drain line. The tank comes with a lifetime warranty on the pressure vessel, while the control valve and electronics have the manufacturer’s standard warranty. U.S. shipping is free and included in the price.
