Including filter system and high-performance Bromate filter.
Bromate is a contaminant that can form during certain water disinfection methods, especially when ozone reacts with source water that contains bromide. It’s colorless and odorless, so you wouldn’t know it’s there just by looking or tasting your water. For homeowners in Westwood Lakes and the surrounding Miami-Dade County communities, the only reliable way to know whether bromate is present is to have your tap water tested.
Because bromate originates from treatment processes rather than from household pipes, treating only a single faucet may leave exposure in showers, laundry, and cooking. Many Westwood Lakes families opt for whole-house treatment so every tap — from the bathroom shower to the kitchen sink and ice maker — delivers treated water. Whole-home systems also simplify maintenance compared with multiple point-of-use units, and Mr. Pure Water can recommend setups that account for Miami-area factors like hard water and tropical climate conditions.
For reducing bromate at home, a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane is generally the most effective single filter technology available. RO separates water from many dissolved contaminants through a semi-permeable membrane, making it better suited to remove inorganic ions and disinfection byproducts than basic carbon filters that focus on chlorine taste and odor. When bromate reduction is the priority, the membrane is the primary component doing the work.
A whole-house RO installation locates the membrane where incoming water enters your Westwood Lakes residence so treated water is supplied to showers, sinks, appliances, and ice makers throughout the home. Because RO systems are more complex than standard filters, they need proper sizing and prefiltration to preserve flow and membrane life — especially in hard Miami-area water that can contribute to scaling. Mr. Pure Water can design a whole-home RO system tailored to your house and arrange routine service to keep it performing.
