Including filter system and high-performance Silica filter.
Silica is a naturally occurring mineral that can appear in tap water either dissolved or as silicates. Even when it doesn’t affect flavor, it can cause nagging household problems. As water heats or evaporates, silica often leaves behind tenacious deposits that are tougher to remove than ordinary mineral scale. In Bon Ami homes you may spot more film on glass, buildup on faucets and showerheads, and poorer performance from appliances that use hot water.
Because silica frequently stays dissolved and stable in water, it doesn’t respond the same way as common hardness minerals and can be difficult to treat with standard equipment. Traditional water softeners focus on calcium and magnesium and generally aren’t the best fix for silica. Some silica also occurs as very fine particulate, which behaves differently than dissolved silica or silicates and can keep causing issues even when other water concerns seem handled around your Bon Ami house.
For many homes the single most effective whole-house option for reducing silica is a reverse osmosis system. RO uses a semipermeable membrane to remove dissolved minerals like silica and silicates rather than merely trapping larger particles, so it’s better suited to the forms of silica that pass through sediment or carbon filters. Properly sized and installed for a Bon Ami residence, RO addresses the source of the problem instead of just masking the spotting and buildup you see.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system is usually installed with pretreatment to keep the membrane working well over time. Sediment and carbon stages cut fouling and remove contaminants that could impair performance, while the RO membrane handles dissolved silica; any fine particulate silica can be captured in pretreatment stages before it reaches the membrane. Mr. Pure Water can test your Bon Ami plumbing to see whether silica or silicates are behind your buildup and recommend the right pretreatment and RO configuration for your home.
