Including filter system and high-performance Silica filter.
Silica is a natural mineral that can appear in tap water as dissolved silica or as silicates. While it often doesn't change flavor, it can create annoying buildup around your Felkel home: stubborn deposits on glass, film on fixtures, and reduced efficiency in water-heating appliances. Those residues tend to form when water is heated or evaporates, and they’re usually harder to remove than everyday mineral scale.
Because silica frequently stays dissolved and chemically stable, it doesn’t respond well to the same treatments that address hardness minerals. Standard water softeners in Florida are built mainly to target calcium and magnesium, not silica or silicates, so spotting and buildup can persist in Felkel even when other water concerns seem handled. Some silica also exists as very fine particles, which behave differently than dissolved silicates and may require different pretreatment steps.
For most households, the single most effective whole-house option for reducing silica is a reverse osmosis system. RO relies on a semipermeable membrane to remove dissolved minerals — including silica and silicates — rather than merely trapping larger particles, so it addresses the form of silica that can pass through sediment or carbon filters. When sized and installed correctly for a Felkel home, it targets the source of deposits instead of only masking the spotting you see.
A whole-house reverse osmosis installation is usually combined with pretreatment to protect the membrane and maintain steady performance. Sediment and carbon stages ahead of the RO help prevent fouling, capture any fine particulate silica, and remove other contaminants that could shorten membrane life. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your Felkel plumbing and water conditions, determine whether silica or silicates are causing buildup, and recommend the right pretreatment and RO configuration for your home.
