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 similar chemicals reach the environment. You may also find it labeled as o-dichlorobenzene on lab reports. Because this class of contaminant can affect water even at low concentrations, many Rio Pinar homeowners choose to treat water at the main line so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same protection. A whole-house system provides that consistent coverage for homes served by the Orlando-area municipal system and helps address concerns throughout the house.
When 1,2-dichlorobenzene is present it can produce chemical tastes or odors, but you shouldn’t rely on smell alone to judge water safety. The most dependable step is a current water test or reviewing the water quality information available for your area. Reducing this contaminant in Rio Pinar not only increases confidence in water used for cooking and bathing, it can also help protect fixtures that already contend with moderate hardness and mineral scale common in Orange County homes.
For whole-house reduction of 1,2-dichlorobenzene, a single activated carbon filter is typically the best all-in-one choice. Carbon media adsorbs many organic and solvent-type chemicals, including o-dichlorobenzene, as water flows through the tank. Installed at the main service line into your Rio Pinar home, this approach treats every tap without the need for multiple point-of-use units — useful for addressing contaminants in drinking water, showers and laundry across the house.
To work well, a carbon tank must be sized correctly and use the right type of carbon so there’s adequate contact time for capture. Whole-house carbon also tends to improve taste and reduce other odor-causing compounds, making water more pleasant throughout homes near UCF, Rio Pinar Country Club and surrounding neighborhoods. Carbon media needs periodic replacement or service to maintain performance; Mr. Pure Water can assess your household flow rate and water use to recommend a whole-house activated carbon system sized for reliable removal of 1,2-dichlorobenzene.
