Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, or TDS, refers to the blend of minerals, salts and small ions dissolved in your household water. These dissolved solids can originate from natural sources such as rock and soil, or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS rises, you might notice a metallic, salty or bitter taste and increased spotting on glass, fixtures and dishes. Because TDS is a measurement of many different substances rather than a single contaminant, the best fix depends on which dissolved materials are present in your supply.
High TDS commonly includes dissolved salts like sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate along with other small ions. Many of these are naturally occurring minerals, and in hard-water areas like Coconut Creek they contribute to scale buildup on plumbing and fixtures. Elevated dissolved solids can make water less pleasant to drink, reduce soap lathering, and accelerate mineral film on shower doors and sinks. A proper water test will show your overall TDS and help determine whether dissolved salts are driving the issues you’re seeing.
To actually lower dissolved salts and reduce total dissolved solids, the most effective single filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike carbon filters, which primarily 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 makes RO well suited to address dissolved solids from a variety of sources. For homeowners focused on targeting TDS specifically, RO is the proven option designed for that purpose.
A correctly sized whole-house reverse osmosis system treats water at the point of entry so lower TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance in your Coconut Creek home. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, systems commonly include 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 the house. Mr. Pure Water can test your water to confirm TDS levels and advise whether whole-house RO fits your plumbing and household needs.
