Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, often called TDS, refers to the mix of minerals, salts and metals dissolved in your household water. These dissolved solids can originate from natural contact with rock and soil or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS rises, homeowners in Beaver Creek may pick up a salty, bitter or metallic taste and notice more spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS is a measure of many constituents rather than a single substance, the most effective remedy depends on which dissolved materials are present.
High TDS is commonly made up of dissolved salts like sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate, along with other small ions. While some are harmless minerals, higher levels of dissolved solids can make drinking water less pleasant and stress appliances that heat or evaporate water. You might also observe quicker scale buildup, film on shower doors, and soap that won’t lather as well. Testing is the reliable way to measure overall TDS and determine whether dissolved salts are the main cause of issues in your Beaver Creek home.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the single most effective filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike typical carbon filters that mainly improve taste and remove many organic contaminants, RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That membrane-based approach makes RO particularly well suited for addressing dissolved solids from a variety of sources. When Beaver Creek homeowners want a system aimed specifically at reducing TDS, RO is the solution designed for that purpose.
A correctly sized whole-house reverse osmosis system treats water at the point of entry so every tap, shower and appliance in your Beaver Creek residence benefits from reduced TDS. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, these systems are usually installed with prefiltration to protect performance and lengthen membrane life. The result is water that tastes cleaner, leaves less residue as it dries, and feels more consistent throughout the home. Mr. Pure Water can help test your water, confirm if high TDS is present, and advise whether a whole-house RO system fits your plumbing and needs.
