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 reported as o-Dichlorobenzene on lab results. Because even small amounts can affect water quality, many Wausau homeowners choose to treat incoming water at the main shutoff so every faucet, shower and appliance receives the same protection. A whole-house solution treats water for the entire home rather than relying on individual point-of-use devices.
When 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is present it can cause chemical-like tastes or odors, though you shouldn’t depend on smell alone to detect it. The most dependable step is a recent water test or reviewing available water quality reports for your area. Addressing this contaminant in Wausau can improve confidence in your household water and help protect plumbing fixtures and appliances—resulting in better water for bathing, cooking, and everyday tasks.
For treating 1,2-Dichlorobenzene in a home's supply, a whole-house activated carbon filter is commonly the best single-filter choice. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic solvent-type chemicals, including o-Dichlorobenzene, as water flows through the media. Installed at the point where the main line enters a Wausau home, a single carbon system delivers treated water to every tap without needing multiple under-sink units—useful when the issue affects drinking water as well as water for showers and laundry.
Performance depends on choosing the proper carbon type and sizing the tank so water has enough contact time with the media. A whole-house carbon system also reduces other substances that cause unpleasant tastes and odors, making water throughout your Wausau home more pleasant. Carbon media needs periodic replacement or service to maintain removal levels; Mr. Pure Water can help size and configure a whole-house activated carbon system to match your home’s flow rate and usage so 1,2-Dichlorobenzene is managed reliably.
