Including filter system and high-performance Naphthalene filter.
Naphthalene is an organic chemical that can appear in water when fuel-related products or industrial materials are nearby. In Palm Beach homes you might notice a strong mothball-like smell or an off taste—especially from warm water—because higher temperatures can make certain compounds more noticeable. Even if you don’t detect an odor, testing is the only reliable way to know whether naphthalene is present and whether treatment is needed for your household’s peace of mind.
Naphthalene is often grouped with other volatile organic compounds tied to petroleum or combustion byproducts and can enter water through spills, improper storage, or migration through soil into groundwater. For Palm Beach residents—whether in the Town of Palm Beach, the Estate Section, or Midtown—having clean water for drinking, cooking, and bathing matters. Treating water at the main line with a whole-house system ensures improvements reach every faucet, shower, and appliance rather than just a single point of use.
The most effective single-filter whole-house solution for naphthalene is a high-quality activated carbon filter, often using catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical home flow rates. Activated carbon removes many organic chemicals, including those that cause solvent- or mothball-like odors; performance depends on adequate contact time and enough carbon media, since high flow or undersized tanks reduce efficiency. Installed on the main water line, a properly sized carbon tank treats water before it reaches your Palm Beach faucets, showers, and appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon filter with prefiltration helps keep sediment out of the carbon bed and preserves steady flow—useful for Palm Beach’s generally hard municipal water that can contribute to limescale buildup. Carbon media must be replaced on schedule because it eventually becomes exhausted as it captures contaminants. If testing reveals other concerns such as sediment or metals, those are addressed with additional stages, while activated carbon remains the primary workhorse for naphthalene reduction; Mr. Pure Water can help size and stage a system to fit your household demand and local conditions.
