Including filter system and high-performance Naphthalene filter.
Naphthalene is an organic compound that can appear in water when fuel-related products or industrial materials are nearby. In Runnymede you might notice a mothball-like odor or taste, especially from warm water where smells can become stronger. Even without a noticeable scent, many homeowners prefer to address the issue for health and comfort. The only reliable way to know if naphthalene is present in your water is to have it tested.
Naphthalene often shows up with other volatile organic compounds because it’s linked to petroleum and combustion byproducts. It can enter water through spills, improper chemical storage, or migration through soil into groundwater in some places. Runnymede homeowners who use well water or live in our humid subtropical area—where mineral scaling and other well-water issues like iron or sulfur can also occur—benefit from treating water at the point it enters the house. A whole-house system makes sure treated water is delivered to every faucet, shower and appliance rather than just a single tap.
The most effective single-filter solution for naphthalene in a whole-house setup is a high-quality activated carbon unit, commonly using catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical home flow rates. Activated carbon removes many organic chemicals and can reduce the solvent- or mothball-like odors associated with naphthalene. Proper contact time and an appropriately sized carbon bed are crucial—undersized tanks or too-fast flow will lower effectiveness. Installed at the main water line in your Runnymede home, this filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon filter with a sediment prefilter helps prevent rapid clogging and maintains consistent flow for Runnymede households, especially where mineral scale or well sediment is a concern. Carbon media does become exhausted and requires regular replacement to remain effective. If testing finds other concerns—like sediment, metals, or microbes—those are typically addressed with additional stages, but carbon remains the primary treatment for naphthalene; Mr. Pure Water can size and recommend the right carbon system for your home’s demand.
