Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, often called TDS, refers to the blend of minerals, salts and metals dissolved in your household water. Those dissolved solids can originate from natural contact with rock and soil or from treatment and piping in the distribution system. When TDS becomes elevated, Oak Park homeowners sometimes notice a salty, metallic or bitter flavor and more spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS is a measurement of many constituents rather than a single pollutant, the best fix depends on which dissolved substances are present.
High TDS is commonly tied to dissolved salts and small ions such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate. Even though several of these are naturally occurring minerals, higher levels of dissolved solids can make water less enjoyable to drink and can strain water-using appliances by promoting scale. You may also notice soap that won’t lather, film on shower doors, or faster buildup on fixtures around your Oak Park home. A professional test can measure total dissolved solids and reveal whether dissolved salts are the chief contributor.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single-filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike standard 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 reverse osmosis well suited to address dissolved solids from a variety of sources; when Oak Park homeowners want a system aimed specifically at TDS, RO is the recommended choice.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system sized for your Oak Park property treats water at the point of entry so lower TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, these systems are 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 home — and Mr. Pure Water can help determine whether whole-house RO is the right fit for your plumbing and household needs.
