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. Homeowners in Havana may notice a strong mothball-like smell or taste, particularly when using warm water, because some compounds release more odor as temperature rises. Even without a detectable smell, many families prefer to address it for peace of mind. The only way to know for sure is to have your water tested so you can confirm whether naphthalene or related compounds are present.
Because naphthalene is linked to petroleum and combustion byproducts, it’s usually discussed with other volatile organic compounds that can appear in drinking water. It may get into groundwater from spills, poor chemical storage, or migration through soil in certain locations. Whatever the origin, most Havana households don’t want these compounds in the water they drink, cook with, or bathe in. Installing a whole-house system makes sure treatment happens consistently throughout the home instead of only at a single faucet.
To reduce naphthalene, the most effective single-filter option for a whole-house unit is a high-quality activated carbon filter—often 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. Performance depends on sufficient contact time and the proper amount of carbon media, since undersized tanks or overly fast flow can cut effectiveness. When installed at the main water line in your Havana home, this filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon filter with prefiltration helps prevent sediment from fouling the carbon bed and keeps flow steady. Regular replacement of cartridges or media is important because the carbon becomes exhausted as it captures contaminants. If testing reveals other issues like sediment, metals, or microbial concerns, those are typically addressed with additional stages, but carbon remains the primary component for naphthalene reduction. Mr. Pure Water can size and recommend the right carbon filtration for your Havana household so every tap receives consistent treatment.
