Including filter system and high-performance Oxadiazon filter.
Oxadiazon is a herbicide used to control weeds and may enter source water the same way other lawn and farm chemicals do. Because you can't see or taste it, the only way to know if oxadiazon is in your supply is with testing. Many Gaskins Still homeowners choose to treat water at the point where it enters the house so every fixture — from the kitchen sink to outside hoses — is covered without having to treat individual taps.
Clear, good-tasting water can still contain man-made organic compounds that only labs can detect, and oxadiazon is one of those contaminants associated with runoff rather than the minerals that cause scale. Standard fixes for hardness or sediment won’t reliably remove it. A whole-house system installed for Gaskins Still homes reduces what you bathe in, cook with, and launder with — not just what you drink — giving broader protection throughout the house.
For reducing oxadiazon in a household supply, a whole-house activated carbon filter is the single most effective and practical choice for most homes. Activated carbon adsorbs a wide range of organic compounds as water passes through the media, and because oxadiazon is an organic herbicide, carbon filtration is the preferred technology for this class of contaminants. When installed at the main line in a Gaskins Still home, it treats water used in showers, sinks, laundry, and appliances all at once.
To work properly, a carbon system needs adequate contact time and the correct media type — for example, catalytic carbon or high-capacity granular activated carbon chosen for broad VOC and herbicide reduction. Proper sizing is important for Gaskins Still households because high flow demands can shorten contact time and reduce adsorption if the tank is undersized. Adding a simple prefilter to remove sediment helps prevent channeling or premature clogging of the carbon bed. Mr. Pure Water can help select and size a whole-house carbon filter so oxadiazon reduction is consistent at every tap.
