Including filter system and high-performance 1,2-Dichlorobenzene filter.
1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a man-made solvent that can enter water supplies if industrial degreasers or similar chemicals reach the environment. You may also find it listed as o-Dichlorobenzene on lab reports or consumer confidence documents. Because even small amounts can affect taste and odor, many Concord homeowners choose to treat water at the point where it enters the house so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same protection.
When present, this contaminant can cause chemical-like tastes or smells, but odor alone isn’t a reliable indicator of water safety. The best way to know what’s in your Concord water is a recent lab test or review of available water quality information. If 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a potential concern, reducing it can protect plumbing fixtures and give you greater confidence in water used for cooking, bathing and everyday household tasks.
To lower 1,2-Dichlorobenzene throughout a home, a whole-house activated carbon filter is often the single most effective choice. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic solvent-type chemicals, including o-Dichlorobenzene, as water flows through the media. Installed at the main water line into your Concord home, it treats water for every tap so you won’t need multiple point-of-use units for drinking water, showers or laundry.
Size and carbon type matter: a correctly sized carbon tank provides the contact time and media volume needed for reliable removal. Whole-house carbon also helps with other taste- and odor-causing compounds, making water throughout your Concord residence more pleasant. Carbon media requires routine replacement or servicing to remain effective; Mr. Pure Water can assess your home’s flow rate and water use and recommend the right whole-house activated carbon system for consistent treatment of 1,2-Dichlorobenzene.
