Why Talent

Whole-home water filters for Talent water.

Primary source
Medford Water — via TAP (Talent–Ashland–Phoenix) transmission main
Key issues we see
Post-Almeda Fire residual VOCs
Chlorine and DBPs
Rural well arsenic outside city

Talent's municipal water arrives from Medford Water through the TAP (Talent-Ashland-Phoenix) transmission main (City of Talent — Water Distribution). A carbon filter covers the free-chlorine residual and the same MWC DBP profile.

The specific reason to install filtration in Talent is the Almeda Fire (Sept 8, 2020): Oregon Drinking Water Services records 51-52 post-fire VOC samples in Talent between 2020 and March 2022, with 18 detections and 3 MCL exceedances (Oregon DWS Post-Wildfire VOC Sampling). Secondary reporting of the AWWA Toth 2024 paper puts peak benzene at 76.4 µg/L — 15x the federal 5 ppb MCL (AWWA — Toth 2024). Rebuilt homes, and surviving homes on blocks where neighbors burned, should have whole-home carbon plus a point-of-use RO at the kitchen.
