Including filter system and high-performance Naphthalene filter.
Naphthalene is an organic compound that can appear in water when fuel-related products or industrial materials are nearby. Homeowners sometimes detect a strong mothball-like smell or an off taste, especially from warm water when odors can become more noticeable. Even if you don’t smell anything, many Alafaya residents choose to test and address possible contaminants for reassurance. Laboratory testing is the only reliable way to know if naphthalene is present in your household water.
Because naphthalene is tied to petroleum and combustion byproducts, it’s often grouped with other volatile organic compounds that can affect some water supplies. It may enter groundwater from spills, improper chemical storage, or migration through soil in certain locations. Families around Alafaya and the greater Orange County area understandably don’t want those compounds in water used for drinking, cooking, or bathing. A whole-house filtration strategy treats every tap in your home, so quality is improved throughout, not only at one faucet.
For naphthalene removal, a single, whole-house activated carbon filter is the most effective standard option—ideally catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical household flow. Activated carbon reduces many organic compounds, including those responsible for solvent- or mothball-like odors, by adsorbing them onto the media. Proper sizing and sufficient contact time are important because high flow rates or undersized tanks can lower performance. When installed on the main water line, this carbon filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances in Alafaya homes.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon system with prefiltration helps keep sediment out of the carbon bed and preserves steady flow—useful in this part of Central Florida where water commonly tests hard and can carry mineral scale. Carbon media must be replaced on schedule since it becomes exhausted as it adsorbs contaminants. If your test results show sediment, metals, or microbial concerns, those are usually addressed with additional stages, while carbon remains the primary solution for naphthalene reduction. Mr. Pure Water can size and recommend the right carbon system for your Alafaya household so every tap gets consistent treatment.
