Including filter system and high-performance Tungsten filter.
Tungsten is a naturally occurring metal that can end up in drinking water at trace levels. In some places higher amounts appear when groundwater flows through certain rock or soil types or when nearby industrial activities affect local sources. Because tungsten is usually colorless and odorless, you likely won’t detect it without laboratory testing. Many Fidelis homeowners choose to identify metals of concern, including tungsten, to feel confident about their household water.
While research into tungsten in drinking water is ongoing, a practical, precautionary approach makes sense for homeowners who find elevated results. Clear, good-tasting water can still contain dissolved metals, so testing matters. If your Fidelis property uses a private well, schedule periodic tests to monitor changes over time; water quality can vary with seasons and usage. For those on a municipal supply, checking local water quality reports and testing at the tap will show what’s actually entering your home.
To reduce tungsten at the point of entry, a whole-house reverse osmosis system is generally the most effective single-filter option. Reverse osmosis relies on a semipermeable membrane that rejects many dissolved metals and inorganic contaminants, lowering tungsten before water reaches faucets, showers, and appliances. Simpler media designed for taste and odor may not stop dissolved tungsten, so a correctly designed whole-house RO with prefiltration is recommended to protect the membrane from sediment and chlorine where needed.
A whole-house reverse osmosis system can be set up with storage and delivery to provide consistent treated water across a Fidelis home. Reliable performance depends on proper sizing, sufficient water pressure, and scheduled filter and membrane care, since fouling reduces effectiveness over time. If your home uses a well, extra pretreatment may be advised to handle hardness, iron, or particulates that shorten membrane life.
