Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids — called TDS, dissolved solids, or dissolved salts — refers to the mix of minerals, salts and small ions dissolved in your water. These dissolved materials can come from natural geology, treatment systems, or the pipes that deliver water to Meridian houses. When TDS rises, you might notice a metallic, salty or bitter taste and more spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS measures the total load rather than a single substance, the right approach depends on which dissolved components are present in your supply.
High TDS often reflects dissolved salts such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate alongside other tiny ions. Even though some are normal minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make water taste off, reduce soap lathering, and accelerate scale and film on showers and appliances in Meridian homes. A water test will show your overall TDS and help determine whether dissolved salts are the main cause of the issues you’re seeing.
To actively remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike standard carbon filters that focus on taste and many organics, RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects the dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That membrane makes RO well-suited to tackle dissolved solids from a variety of sources, so when Meridian homeowners want a filter built specifically to reduce TDS, RO is the recommended choice.
A correctly sized whole-house reverse osmosis system treats water at the point of entry so reduced TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance in your Meridian home. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, systems are typically installed with prefilters to protect performance and prolong membrane life. The outcome is water that tastes cleaner, leaves less residue when it dries, and performs consistently throughout the house — and Mr. Pure Water can help test your water and confirm whether whole-house RO fits your plumbing and needs.
