Including filter system and high-performance Oxadiazon filter.
Oxadiazon is a herbicide used to control weeds that can enter source water from lawns or agricultural areas. Because you can’t see or taste it, the only way to know if oxadiazon is in your plumbing is through testing. Many Argyle homeowners opt to limit potential exposure as a precaution, and treating water at the point it enters your house makes protection simple and consistent for every tap.
Some man-made organic chemicals dissolve into water without affecting appearance or flavor, and oxadiazon often comes from runoff or incidental contamination rather than the minerals that cause hardness or scale. That means typical fixes for hardness or sediment may not remove it. Installing treatment at the whole-house level in Argyle treats water used for bathing, cooking, laundry, and cleaning—not just the water you drink.
For oxadiazon reduction, a whole-house activated carbon filter is the single most practical and effective choice for most homes. Activated carbon adsorbs a wide range of organic compounds, capturing them as water passes through the media. Because oxadiazon is an organic herbicide, carbon filtration is the preferred technology; installed at your main water line it protects showers, sinks, appliances, and more throughout Argyle homes.
To work well, a carbon system needs adequate contact time and the right media—options like catalytic carbon or high-capacity granular activated carbon are chosen for broad VOC and herbicide reduction. Proper sizing is important because high household flow rates can reduce adsorption if the tank is too small. Adding a simple prefilter keeps sediment from clogging or channeling the carbon bed.
