Including filter system and high-performance 1,2-Dichlorobenzene filter.
1,2-Dichlorobenzene is a man-made chemical that can enter water supplies when industrial solvents or degreasers reach the environment. You may also see this compound listed as o-dichlorobenzene on lab reports. Because even small amounts can affect water quality, many Old Town homeowners choose to treat the water where it comes into the house. A whole-house system ensures the same filtered water flows to every faucet, shower, and appliance in your home.
When 1,2-dichlorobenzene is present it can cause chemical-like tastes or odors, though scent alone won’t reliably identify contaminants in your plumbing. The best way to know what’s in your water is a current test or reviewing available water-quality information for your area. If you’re concerned about 1,2-dichlorobenzene in Old Town, reducing it can improve the taste and smell of your water and give you greater confidence for bathing, cooking, and everyday household use.
To reduce 1,2-dichlorobenzene throughout a home, a whole-house activated carbon filter is often the most effective single-filter choice. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic, solvent-type chemicals such as o-dichlorobenzene as water flows through the media. Installed at the main water line, a single carbon tank treats every tap in Old Town homes without needing multiple under-sink units — useful when you want the same protection for drinking water, showers, and laundry.
Performance comes down to the right carbon type and a properly sized tank, since contact time and media volume determine how much contaminant is captured. Whole-house carbon also helps reduce other taste- and odor-causing compounds, making water throughout your Old Town home more pleasant. Carbon media needs scheduled replacement or servicing to maintain effectiveness; Mr. Pure Water can help select and size an activated carbon system matched to your home’s flow rate and usage so 1,2-dichlorobenzene is treated reliably.
