Including filter system and high-performance 1,4-Dichlorobenzene filter.
1,4-Dichlorobenzene is a synthetic chemical that can end up in drinking water and becomes a concern when concentrations are high. Also called p-Dichlorobenzene, many people recognize it by a strong mothball-like smell rather than the chemical name. Because it can change the taste and odor of water, homeowners around Lamont often choose to treat water where it enters the house so the whole household—showers, laundry and dishwashing—gets cleaner water and fewer odors.
This chemical has been used in products like deodorants and moth repellents and can reach water through industrial handling, improper disposal, or contaminated runoff and groundwater. It can persist in the environment because it doesn’t break down quickly under normal conditions. Even if your tap water looks clear in Lamont, an unpleasant smell may be noticeable in hot showers or when multiple faucets run. If you suspect a problem, testing is the only way to know whether 1,4-Dichlorobenzene is present and which treatment will work best.
To reduce 1,4-Dichlorobenzene in household water, a single whole-house granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is generally the most effective option. Activated carbon removes many organic compounds, including p-Dichlorobenzene, by adsorbing them as water flows through the carbon media. Because a GAC tank treats all incoming water, it improves quality at the kitchen sink as well as at showers and appliances throughout Lamont—important for contaminants that are often noticed by smell during bathing and cleaning.
A correctly sized whole-house carbon tank is built to handle a home’s flow rates so filtration keeps pace with daily use. Media depth, contact time and timely media replacement all affect ongoing reduction of 1,4-Dichlorobenzene. Mr. Pure Water can help Lamont homeowners choose a GAC system that matches their water test results and household needs, then install it to filter water before it reaches the plumbing for cleaner water from every tap.
