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 Lowry homes you might detect a mothball-like odor or taste, particularly from warm water, because some compounds release more smell as temperature rises. Even if you don’t notice any scent, many families prefer to address the issue for peace of mind. The only way to know for sure is to test your water and confirm whether naphthalene is present.
Because naphthalene is linked to petroleum and combustion byproducts, it’s often discussed with other volatile organic compounds that can affect some water sources. It can come from spills, improper chemical storage near a property, or migration through soil into groundwater in certain locations. Whatever the source, most Lowry residents don’t want these compounds in the water used for drinking, cooking, and bathing. A whole-house system treats water at the point it enters your home so you get consistent improvement throughout, not just at a single faucet.
To reduce naphthalene, the most effective single-filter whole-house option is a high-quality activated carbon filter—usually catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical home flow rates. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic chemicals, including those that cause solvent- or mothball-like odors. Proper contact time and an adequately sized carbon bed are essential because high flow rates or undersized tanks can lower performance. When installed on the main line, this filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances in your Lowry home.
A whole-house activated carbon system in Lowry works best with prefiltration to remove sediment that could clog the carbon bed and to keep flow steady. Carbon media will become exhausted over time, so scheduled cartridge or media replacement is important to maintain effectiveness. If testing reveals other concerns—sediment, metals, or microbes—those are usually addressed with additional stages, while carbon remains the primary solution for naphthalene reduction. Mr. Pure Water can help size and configure the carbon filtration to meet your household’s needs and ensure consistent treatment at every tap.
