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 homes it often shows up as a strong mothball-like smell or taste, especially from warm water when odors are more noticeable. Even if you don’t detect a scent in Overstreet, testing is the only reliable way to know what’s in your supply and to give you peace of mind about drinking, cooking and bathing water.
Because naphthalene is linked to petroleum and combustion byproducts, it’s commonly grouped with other volatile organic compounds that can affect some water sources. It may also come from spills, improper chemical storage near a property, or migration through soil into groundwater in certain locations. Most families in Overstreet prefer not to have these compounds in their water, and a whole-house filtration approach makes sure treated water reaches every faucet, shower and appliance rather than just one point.
The single most effective whole-house filter for reducing naphthalene is a quality activated carbon unit—often using catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical home flow rates. Activated carbon reduces many organic chemicals and the solvent- or mothball-like odors they cause by adsorbing them onto the media. Performance depends on contact time and having enough carbon media, so properly sized tanks and appropriate flow rates are essential; when installed at the main water line in an Overstreet home, this treatment protects showers, faucets and appliances.
A correctly chosen whole-house activated carbon filter pairs well with prefiltration to prevent sediment from fouling the carbon bed and to preserve steady household flow. Carbon media will become exhausted and needs regular replacement or recharge to remain effective. If your Overstreet water test also shows sediment, metals, or biological concerns, those issues are usually addressed with additional stages, while carbon stays the primary solution for naphthalene; Mr. Pure Water can help size and specify the right carbon system for your family’s needs.
