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 see it reported as o-Dichlorobenzene on lab results. Because even small amounts can affect water quality, many Seaglades homeowners choose to treat water at the point it enters the house so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same filtration. A whole-house system is the simplest way to make sure treated water reaches the whole home.
When 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is present, water can sometimes take on a chemical taste or odor, but smell alone isn’t a reliable indicator of contamination. The most dependable way to know what’s in your water is a recent test or checking local water quality reports. For Seaglades residents who are concerned, lowering levels of this compound can protect plumbing fixtures and give you greater confidence in your water for bathing, cooking and everyday use.
To reduce 1,2-Dichlorobenzene in a home supply, a whole-house activated carbon filter is typically the best single-filter choice. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic and solvent-type chemicals, including o-Dichlorobenzene, as water flows through the media. Installed at the main line where water enters your Seaglades home, a single tank treats every tap so you don’t need multiple point-of-use units — especially helpful if both drinking water and water for showers or laundry are affected.
Performance comes down to choosing the proper carbon type and sizing the tank to provide adequate contact time and media volume. Whole-house carbon also reduces other taste- and odor-causing compounds, improving water aesthetics throughout your Seaglades home. Carbon media needs routine replacement or service to maintain effectiveness; Mr. Pure Water can assess your household flow and usage to recommend a whole-house activated carbon system that reliably addresses 1,2-Dichlorobenzene.
