Including filter system and high-performance Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) filter.
Total dissolved solids — listed as TDS, dissolved solids, or dissolved salts — is the collective term for minerals, salts and small metals dissolved in your water. These dissolved materials can come from natural contact with rock and soil or from treatment and distribution processes. When TDS rises, many homeowners notice a metallic, bitter or slightly salty taste and more spotting on glass and fixtures. Because TDS measures the total mix rather than one single substance, the right approach depends on which dissolved components are present in your Wiley supply.
High TDS usually reflects dissolved salts and ions like sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and sulfate along with other small charged particles. While some are harmless minerals, elevated dissolved solids can make drinking water less appealing and strain appliances that heat or evaporate water. You might spot faster scale buildup, filmy residue on shower doors, and soap that won’t lather as expected. Because Wiley homes can get heavy use of outdoor plumbing and irrigation in our humid subtropical climate, testing your water will clarify overall TDS and whether dissolved salts are the main issue.
To actually remove dissolved salts and lower total dissolved solids, the most effective single filter technology is reverse osmosis (RO). Unlike standard carbon systems that mainly address taste and many organic contaminants, RO pushes water through a semi-permeable membrane that rejects the dissolved ions responsible for high TDS. That membrane design makes RO a strong choice for treating dissolved solids from a variety of sources. When Wiley homeowners ask for a solution that targets TDS specifically, RO is the filter built for that purpose.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system sized for your Wiley 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, systems are commonly 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 consistent throughout the home; Mr. Pure Water can test your supply and help determine whether whole-house RO fits your plumbing and household needs.
