Including filter system and high-performance Tungsten filter.
Tungsten is a metal that occurs naturally and can enter drinking water at low concentrations. In Lake County and the Chain O'Lakes area, groundwater and well sources often interact with local rock and soil, which can influence which metals show up in tap water. Because tungsten is generally colorless and odorless, you won’t detect it by taste or sight — a lab test is the only reliable way to know if it’s present. Many Chain O'Lakes homeowners start by testing for metals, including tungsten, to better understand their household water quality.
While research into tungsten’s effects in drinking water continues, a practical approach is to respond to test results with sensible precautions. Even clear, ordinary-tasting water can contain dissolved metals, so routine testing is useful — especially for private wells common around Chain O'Lakes and nearby communities like Leesburg and Mount Dora. For municipal customers, checking your local water quality report and confirming results with a tap sample helps ensure you know what’s entering your home. Seasonal shifts and the region’s humid subtropical climate can also change water quality over time, so periodic checks are a good idea.
To reduce tungsten at the point of entry, a whole-house reverse osmosis system is generally the most effective single-filter option. Reverse osmosis forces water through a semipermeable membrane that rejects many dissolved metals and inorganic contaminants, lowering tungsten before it reaches faucets, showers, and appliances in your Chain O'Lakes home. Simpler filters that target taste or odor won’t reliably remove dissolved tungsten, so a properly configured whole-house RO — including prefiltration to protect the membrane from sediment and chlorine where applicable — is the recommended solution.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system can be set up with storage and delivery so treated water is available throughout the home, but ongoing performance depends on correct sizing, adequate pressure, and routine maintenance to prevent membrane fouling. In Chain O'Lakes, where many properties use well water that tends to be hard and mineral-rich, pretreatment for hardness, iron, or particulates is often advised to extend membrane life. Mr. Pure Water can review your water test results from Lake County and recommend a whole-house RO design built to address tungsten while handling local water conditions.
