Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, often called TDS, describe the mixture of minerals, salts and metals dissolved in your household water. These dissolved solids can originate from natural sources—like rock and soil—or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS levels become noticeable, you might pick up a salty, metallic or bitter flavor and see more spotting on glassware and fixtures. Because TDS measures the combined dissolved load rather than a single substance, the right fix depends on which dissolved constituents are present in your Lloyd water.
High TDS is commonly linked to dissolved salts such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate, plus other small ions. Though many are naturally occurring minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make water less enjoyable to drink and can stress appliances that heat or evaporate water. You may notice quicker scale buildup, film on shower doors, and soap that won’t lather as well. A proper test will measure total dissolved solids and show whether dissolved salts are the primary cause in your Lloyd home.
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 lower many organic contaminants, RO sends 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 Lloyd homeowners ask for a system aimed specifically at TDS, RO is the technology built for that purpose.
A correctly sized whole-house reverse osmosis system treats water at the point of entry so TDS reductions reach every tap, shower and appliance in your Lloyd residence. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, systems are usually installed with prefiltration to protect membranes and extend service life. The outcome is water that tastes cleaner, leaves less residue as it dries, and feels more consistent throughout the house — and Mr. Pure Water can help determine if whole-house RO is the right solution for your plumbing and household needs.
