Including filter system and high-performance Naphthalene filter.
Naphthalene is an organic compound that can enter water when fuel-related products or industrial materials are nearby. Homeowners sometimes detect a strong mothball-like smell or taste, particularly when using warm water, because higher temperatures can release more odor. Even without a noticeable scent, many Zellwood residents want assurance their water is safe and pleasant—especially given our hard central Florida water that can affect fixtures and appliances. The only way to know for sure is to test your water and confirm whether naphthalene or related compounds are present.
Naphthalene is often grouped with petroleum-related volatile organic compounds and may arrive from spills, improper storage, or migration through soil into groundwater. Families around Zellwood, from the Zellwood Station area to neighborhoods near Lake Apopka or Wekiwa Springs, generally prefer not to have these chemicals in water used for drinking, cooking, or bathing. Treating the whole house rather than a single faucet ensures consistent water quality throughout your home—so showers, appliances and kitchen taps all benefit.
The most effective single-filter solution for naphthalene in a whole-house system is a high-quality activated carbon filter, often using catalytic carbon or a dense carbon media bed sized for typical household flow. Activated carbon removes many organic chemicals that cause solvent- or mothball-like odors by adsorbing them onto the media. Proper contact time and enough carbon are essential—undersized tanks or excessively fast flow will cut effectiveness. When installed on the main water line into your Zellwood home, this filter treats water before it reaches faucets, showers, and water-using appliances.
Pairing a whole-house activated carbon unit with prefiltration helps keep sediment out of the carbon bed and preserves steady flow—useful in central Florida where hard water and mineral content can affect plumbing. Carbon media does exhaust over time, so scheduled cartridge or media replacement is important to maintain performance. If testing indicates other concerns such as sediment, metals, or microbial issues, those are usually addressed with additional stages, while carbon remains the primary treatment for naphthalene; Mr. Pure Water can size and set up the system for Zellwood homes to ensure reliable treatment at every tap.
