Including filter system and high-performance 1,2-Dichlorobenzene filter.
1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a man-made solvent that can enter water supplies when industrial degreasers or related chemicals reach the environment. You may also see it identified as o-Dichlorobenzene on lab reports. Because even small amounts can affect water quality, many Eglin Village homeowners choose to treat water at the point it enters the house so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same filtered water.
When present, this contaminant can produce chemical tastes or odors, but you can’t rely on smell alone to know what’s in your tap. The most dependable step is a current water test or checking available water quality information for your area. If 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a concern in Eglin Village homes, lowering it can protect plumbing fixtures and give you greater confidence in water used for bathing, cooking and everyday chores.
To reduce 1,2-Dichlorobenzene in a home water supply, a whole-house activated carbon filter is typically the best single-filter choice. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic and solvent-type compounds, including o-Dichlorobenzene, as water flows through the media. Installed at the main line where water enters your Eglin Village home, a single carbon system treats every tap without multiple point-of-use units — helpful when the issue affects drinking water as well as showers and laundry.
The effectiveness of whole-house carbon depends on a correctly sized tank and the appropriate carbon type so water has enough contact time with the media to capture contaminants. In addition to reducing 1,2-Dichlorobenzene, whole-house carbon often improves overall taste and odor, making water throughout your Eglin Village home more pleasant. Carbon media must be replaced or serviced on schedule to maintain performance; Mr. Pure Water can help size and select a whole-house activated carbon system based on your home’s flow needs so removal is consistent.
