Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, or TDS, is the blanket term for the minerals, salts and metals that end up dissolved in your water. Those dissolved solids can come from natural sources—like bedrock and soil—or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS climbs into higher ranges, you might notice water tastes salty, bitter, or metallic and you may see spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS is a measurement of many different dissolved substances rather than a single contaminant, the best response depends on which dissolved salts or ions are present in your supply.
High TDS usually reflects dissolved salts and small ions such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate, among others. While some are just common minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make drinking water less appealing and wear on appliances that heat or evaporate water. You may also notice faster scale buildup, soap that won’t lather as well, and films on shower doors and faucets. A simple water test will report total TDS and help determine whether dissolved salts are the primary cause in your Bailey home.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single-filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike standard carbon filters that mostly address taste and many organic contaminants, RO pushes water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects the dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That makes reverse osmosis a strong choice for treating dissolved solids from a variety of sources, and it's the system homeowners most often request when their primary concern is reducing TDS.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system sized for your Bailey property treats water at the point of entry so lower TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance. Because RO membranes can be sensitive to sediment and chlorine, these systems are normally installed with prefiltration to protect performance and extend membrane life. The outcome is water that tastes cleaner, leaves less residue as it dries, and feels more consistent throughout your home—Mr. Pure Water can test your water and advise whether whole-house RO is the right fit for your plumbing and needs.
