Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, or TDS, refers to the mix of minerals, salts and dissolved metals in your water. These dissolved solids can come from natural sources like rock and soil, or from treatment and distribution systems, and their makeup will determine the right response. When TDS gets high you might notice a salty, metallic or bitter taste and more spotting on glass and fixtures. In Felda, where many properties depend on private wells, the amount and type of dissolved solids can vary from well to well, so testing is the first step toward the correct solution.
High TDS commonly reflects dissolved salts such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate along with smaller ions. Though some are simply natural minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make water less pleasant to drink and shorten the life of appliances that heat or evaporate water. You may see faster scale buildup, film on shower doors, and soap that won’t lather properly. For Felda homeowners—especially those on private well systems—laboratory or on-site testing can show the total TDS and reveal whether dissolved salts are driving the issue.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike typical carbon filters that mainly improve taste and reduce many organic contaminants, RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That makes RO a strong choice for treating dissolved solids from a variety of sources. When Felda homeowners want a system aimed specifically at reducing TDS, RO is the technology built for that purpose.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system sized for your home treats water at the point of entry so reduced TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, systems in Hendry County homes are typically paired 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 the house. Mr. Pure Water can help Felda residents test their supply and determine whether whole-house RO fits their plumbing and household needs.
