Including filter system and high-performance Chlorate filter.
Chlorate is a byproduct that can appear in drinking water when certain disinfectants break down, and it can also be linked to some industrial processes. Whether your supply is from a municipal source or a private well serving Sills households, chlorate is usually colorless and odorless, so you won’t detect it by smell or taste. The only reliable way to know what’s in your tap is to test the water and follow a clear treatment plan tailored to your home.
If testing shows elevated chlorate, many Sills homeowners prefer a solution that treats every outlet — not just the kitchen sink — because we use water for cooking, ice, teeth brushing and showering all day. Treating the water where it enters the house keeps protection consistent and can be easier to maintain than multiple point-of-use units. A whole-house system delivers continuous treatment so your family sees the same water quality across faucets and appliances.
For reducing chlorate, a dedicated reverse osmosis (RO) system is one of the most effective single-filter options: its semipermeable membrane rejects many dissolved salts and oxidized byproducts, and chlorate acts like the dissolved ion RO is designed to remove. In a whole-house configuration the RO membrane serves as the primary treatment stage, producing treated water for household use while sending the concentrated reject stream to drain. Correctly sizing the RO system ensures steady flow and performance to meet everyday demand in Sills homes.
A whole-house RO setup typically includes sediment and carbon prefilters to protect the membrane from particles and oxidizers that can shorten its life, while the membrane handles most chlorate removal. Because RO generates a wastewater stream, planning the installation around drain access and delivery or storage is important to preserve pressure and convenience. Mr. Pure Water can review your Sills water test results and household usage to help determine whether whole-house reverse osmosis is the right fit for your home.
