Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids, commonly called TDS, refers to the mixture of minerals, salts and metals dissolved in household water. These dissolved solids may originate from natural sources such as rock and soil or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS gets high, residents often notice a salty, metallic or bitter taste and increased spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS measures the combined dissolved material rather than a single contaminant, the best remedy depends on which specific dissolved substances are present in your Parramore home's water.
High TDS commonly reflects dissolved salts like sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate along with other small ions. While many are naturally occurring minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make tap water less appealing, accelerate scale on water heaters and fixtures, and reduce soap performance. You may notice faster scale buildup, film on shower doors, or soap that doesn’t lather well — signs that testing for overall TDS and the dominant dissolved salts is a good next step for Parramore homeowners.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the single most effective filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike typical carbon filters that mainly improve taste and cut many organic contaminants, RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That ability makes RO especially useful for addressing dissolved solids from a variety of sources, and it’s the technology homeowners ask for when they want a system focused on reducing TDS.
A correctly sized whole-house reverse osmosis system treats water at the point of entry so lower TDS reaches every tap, shower and appliance in your Parramore home. Because RO membranes are sensitive to sediment and chlorine, these systems are usually installed with prefiltration to protect performance and lengthen membrane life. The outcome is water that tastes cleaner, leaves less residue when 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.
