Including filter system and high-performance Salty Taste filter.
Noticing a salty taste at your kitchen tap can make drinking, cooking and even brushing teeth less pleasant—and it often raises questions about what’s in your water. That briny flavor usually comes from dissolved minerals like sodium and chloride that don’t evaporate away. It can also result when water softeners are over-salting, brine systems are out of adjustment, or softened lines feed fixtures more than intended. Because taste sensitivity varies, even small mineral shifts can be obvious at the sink in Century homes.
How strong the salty note appears can change from house to house depending on your source water and any treatment ahead of your taps. Sometimes the flavor is more noticeable in hot water, which suggests the water heater is concentrating minerals as water warms and evaporates slightly. You might also detect a slick feel, more spotting on glassware, or a lingering aftertaste in coffee and tea. A good first step for Century homeowners is testing whether the issue is coming from the incoming supply or from in-home equipment like a softener or cartridge filter.
To remove a salty taste caused by dissolved salts, the single most effective option is reverse osmosis. Unlike standard carbon filters that handle chlorine and many odors, reverse osmosis forces water through a semi-permeable membrane to reduce dissolved sodium, chloride and other minerals that create salinity. When installed as a whole-house system, it treats water at your point of entry so the improved taste extends to drinking, cooking, bathing and appliances—especially useful when the issue is true mineral salt rather than a temporary odor.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system for a Century residence is usually paired with prefiltration to protect the membrane and preserve performance. Sediment prefilters guard against sand, silt and rust that can foul membranes, while carbon prefilters cut chlorine that could harm certain membrane types. Because RO produces a concentrate stream, the installation needs proper discharge plumbing and may include storage and re-pressurization to keep water pressure steady through the house. Mr. Pure Water can inspect your Century home, identify the cause of the salty taste, and recommend the right whole-house RO configuration.
