Including filter system and high-performance Alkalinity filter.
Alkalinity refers to water’s capacity to neutralize acids and is usually controlled by dissolved bicarbonates, carbonates, and hydroxides. In a Betts household you may notice high alkalinity as a flat or soda-like taste, persistent scale on faucets and showerheads, or soap that won’t rinse away easily. Although alkalinity and pH are linked, they measure different aspects of water chemistry, and either one can be out of balance on its own—making routine treatment feel ineffective until the alkalinity is addressed.
Because alkalinity reflects natural minerals in the source water, amounts can change across Betts and over time. Homeowners often spot the issue when coffee or tea tastes off, glassware picks up spots quickly, or white mineral buildup reappears shortly after cleaning. Elevated alkalinity can also reduce the effectiveness of water softeners and some point-of-use filters, since the underlying chemistry still drives scale formation. A straightforward water test in Betts will show if alkalinity is contributing to the problems you see at the tap.
The most effective single-filter solution for lowering alkalinity throughout a Betts home is a whole-house neutralizing/acid-injection system combined with a contact tank and a backwashing media filter. These systems dose a controlled amount of food-grade acid to transform excess alkalinity (mainly bicarbonates) into more stable forms. The contact tank gives the treated water time to mix, and the downstream media filter polishes the water before it reaches your plumbing, delivering balanced water at every faucet rather than just one point of use.
Mr. Pure Water sizes alkalinity-reduction systems for Betts homes based on your household flow needs and the alkalinity shown on your water report. Proper sizing and control aim for gradual, stable adjustment—not overcorrection that could make water aggressive. Whole-house treatment helps protect plumbing and fixtures, reduce scale buildup, and improve taste and performance for bathing, cooking, and cleaning. If you prefer treating only drinking water, we can also discuss under-sink reverse osmosis, but when alkalinity affects the entire home, whole-house control is the better choice.
