Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, usually called TDS, refers to the mix of minerals, salts and metals dissolved in your water. These dissolved solids can originate from natural sources like rock and soil or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS rises, Garnier homeowners may notice a bitter, salty or metallic taste and increased spotting on glassware and fixtures. Because TDS is a measure rather than a single substance, the best solution depends on which dissolved components are present.
High TDS often reflects dissolved salts such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate alongside other small ions. Though many are naturally occurring minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make drinking water less appealing and can accelerate scale buildup in water heaters and appliances. You might observe more film on shower doors, faster scaling, or soap that doesn’t lather well; testing in Garnier will show overall TDS and reveal whether dissolved salts are driving those issues.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike carbon filters that mainly improve taste and reduce certain organic contaminants, RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects the dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That makes RO the go-to choice when homeowners in Garnier want a filter specifically designed to target dissolved solids.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system sized for your Garnier property treats water at the point it enters the home so reduced TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, systems are usually installed with prefiltration to protect performance and extend membrane life. The result is water that often tastes cleaner, leaves less residue as it dries, and feels consistent throughout the house — and Mr. Pure Water can help determine if whole-house RO suits your plumbing and family needs.
