Including filter system and high-performance Oxadiazon filter.
Oxadiazon is a herbicide used to control weeds that can end up in source water through runoff from lawns or agricultural areas. Because you can’t see or taste it, testing is the only reliable way to know if oxadiazon or other similar chemicals are in your water. Many Westgate homeowners prefer to limit exposure as a precaution: treating water where it enters the house simplifies protection for every tap, from the kitchen sink to the laundry.
Clear, good-tasting water can still contain man-made organic compounds that only appear on lab tests. Oxadiazon tends to come from surface runoff rather than the minerals that make Palm Beach County’s hard water leave scale or spots, so typical hardness or sediment fixes won’t necessarily remove it. A whole-house system treats water used for bathing, cooking and cleaning across your Westgate home, not just what you pour into a glass.
For reducing oxadiazon, a whole-house activated carbon filter is the most effective and practical single option for most homes. Activated carbon adsorbs many organic compounds as water passes through the media, and because oxadiazon is an organic herbicide, carbon filtration is the go-to technology for this class of contaminants. Installed at the main line, it protects showers, sinks, appliances and laundry in one step for Westgate residences.
Good performance requires adequate contact time and the right media, such as catalytic carbon or high-capacity granular activated carbon rated for a broad range of VOCs and herbicides. Proper sizing is important—high household flow can shorten adsorption time if the tank is too small—so pairing the carbon tank with a prefilter helps keep sediment from channeling the bed. Mr. Pure Water can help Westgate homeowners select and size a whole-house carbon system so oxadiazon reduction is consistent across every tap.
