Including filter system and high-performance Naphthalene filter.
Naphthalene is an organic chemical that can enter water when fuel-related products or industrial materials are nearby. In Christmas, where many households rely on private wells, you might notice a strong mothball-like smell or an odd taste — especially from warm water, which can release more odor. Even if you don’t detect anything, homeowners often prefer to know what’s in their water for peace of mind. The only way to be sure is to test your water for naphthalene and related compounds.
Naphthalene is commonly grouped with other volatile organic compounds tied to petroleum and combustion byproducts. It can reach groundwater through spills, improper chemical storage, or migration through soil — risks that matter when you draw from a private well in Orange County’s rural pockets like Christmas and nearby Bithlo. Most families don’t want these contaminants in water used for drinking, cooking, or bathing, so a whole-house solution helps by treating water at the point it enters your home rather than only at a single faucet.
The most effective single-filter whole-house option for lowering naphthalene is a high-quality activated carbon system, often using catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for residential flow rates. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic chemicals, including those that cause solvent- or mothball-like odors, but performance depends on sufficient contact time and an appropriately sized carbon bed — undersized tanks or very fast flow reduce effectiveness. Installed at the main water line into your Christmas home, this filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon filter with prefiltration helps prevent sediment — common in some central Florida wells and in hard water areas — from clogging the carbon and keeps flow steady. Carbon media will eventually be exhausted, so scheduled cartridge or media replacement is important to maintain removal of naphthalene and similar compounds. If testing your Christmas well shows additional concerns like sediment, iron, sulfur odors, or other contaminants, those can be addressed with complementary stages, while carbon remains the primary solution for naphthalene reduction; Mr. Pure Water can size a system to match your household’s needs.
