Including filter system and high-performance 1,2-Dichlorobenzene filter.
1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a man-made solvent-related chemical that can enter water supplies when industrial degreasers or similar products reach the environment. It may appear on lab reports as o-Dichlorobenzene. Because even small amounts can affect water quality, many Holland Crossroads homeowners choose to treat the water where it enters their house so the same treated water reaches every faucet, shower and appliance throughout the home.
When 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is present in water, people sometimes notice a chemical-like taste or odor, but scent alone isn’t a reliable indicator of contamination. The best way to know what’s in your Holland Crossroads water is a recent test or checking available water-quality information. If this contaminant is a concern, lowering it can protect plumbing fixtures and give you greater confidence in water used for bathing, cooking and laundry.
For treating 1,2-Dichlorobenzene in a home supply, a whole-house activated carbon filter is the most effective 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 water line into your Holland Crossroads home, a single carbon tank treats every tap without relying on multiple point-of-use units — helpful when water quality concerns extend beyond just drinking water.
Getting good results depends on choosing the right carbon type and a tank sized for your household flow so water has enough contact time with the media. A properly configured whole-house carbon system also reduces other taste- and odor-causing compounds, improving water aesthetics throughout your Holland Crossroads home. Carbon media needs periodic replacement or service to maintain removal performance, and Mr. Pure Water can help size and match an activated carbon system to your home’s usage so 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is addressed consistently.
