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 Ward you might recognize it by a strong mothball-like smell or an off taste, especially noticeable when running warm water, since some compounds release more odor as temperature rises. Even if you can’t detect it by smell, testing is the only way to know for sure what’s in your supply and to give you peace of mind about the water your family uses.
Because naphthalene is linked to petroleum and combustion byproducts, it’s often grouped 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 settings. Whatever the origin, most Ward homeowners don’t want these odors or contaminants in water used for drinking, cooking, or bathing. Treating the entire house helps ensure consistent water quality at every faucet and shower, not only at a single point.
To reduce naphthalene throughout a Ward home, the most effective single-filter option is a whole-house activated carbon filter—usually catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical household flow rates. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic compounds, including those that cause solvent- or mothball-like odors. Proper contact time and an adequately sized carbon bed are critical, because high flow rates or undersized tanks can limit effectiveness. When installed at the main water line, this filter treats water before it reaches showers, faucets, and appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon filter with prefiltration helps protect the carbon bed from sediment and keeps water pressure steady in Ward homes. Carbon media eventually becomes exhausted, so routine cartridge or media replacement is important to maintain performance. If testing reveals other concerns—like excessive sediment, metals, or microbial issues—those are usually addressed with additional treatment stages, while carbon remains the primary solution for naphthalene reduction. Mr. Pure Water can size and recommend the right carbon system for your household’s needs so every tap performs reliably.
