Learn more about TDS and how it affects you while Window Cleaning

What are total dissolved solids?

“Dissolved solids” refer to any minerals, salts, metals, cations or anions dissolved in water. This includes anything present in water other than the pure water (H20) molecule and suspended solids. So when we refer to TDS, we are measuring your water quality or how hard (or soft) your water is. Your TDS and how often you plan on using your system (daily, frequently, infrequently, etc.) are two of the most important factors in choosing a waterfed purification system.

How do total dissolved solids apply to window cleaning?

Simply put, the lower the TDS, the lower your purification system cost can be.

What is the most popular purification system sold?

Our line of [**XERO Pure Systems**](/content/collections/xero-pure-water-systems "XERO Pure System"/index.html) are routinely our best selling systems for many reasons. They just work, are simple to operate, and cheap to maintain. They can handle the hardest of water and are an affordable pure water system for a residential or commercial cleaning business. We sell hundreds of these units each year and are 100% confident in their ability. You're also covered by a killer warranty. Check out our post on [**Ten+ Reasons To Buy A XERO Pure**](/content/pages/ten-reasons-to-buy-a-xero-pure "Ten+ Reasons to Buy a XERO Pure"/index.html).

However, there are many different purification setups available and we'd be happy to chat with you about them as well! Maybe a multi-stage system with a pump such as the [**PWP Little Beast Dual RO/DI - 115V**](/content/products/pure-water-power-little-beast-4-stage-purification-system "PWP Little Beast"/index.html) would be a better option for you. There are even systems that allow you to make and transport your own pure water, such as the [**XERO Wall Mount System**](/content/products/xero-wall-mount-system "XERO Wall Mount System"/index.html)

What do you recommend if my TDS is under 100?

A [**XERO DI 40 Inch**](/content/collections/single-stage-systems/products/xero-di-40-inch "XERO DI 40 Inch"/index.html) systemis a cost-effective method of purification for areas with a TDS lower than 100. You can also shop our selection of [**Single-Stage Systems**](/content/collections/single-stage-systems "Single Stage Systems"/index.html) that are high-quality and reliable options for those working in areas with soft water.

If you are looking for a complete option, we have that available too! We recommend looking at the [**XERO DI Tank Package**](/content/products/xero-di-tank-package "XERO DI Tank Package"/index.html). It comes with a 1/2 Cubic Foot DI Tank and the XERO pole of your choice. The [**Unger HydroPower Ultra Package**](/content/products/unger-hydropower-hiflo-ultra-entry-kit-20-foot "Unger HydroPower Ultra Package"/index.html) is another complete option for those with softer water.

What do you recommend if my TDS is over 100?

A DI tank will NOT be a cost-effective method of purification for areas with a higher TDS. For this, you're gonna need a [**Multistage System**](/content/collections/multi-stage-systems "Multi Stage Systems"/index.html).

Here's an example:

Let's say your water is 222 ppm and you are using a standard DI tank. You would only expect to produce around 700 gallons of work for 23 working hours at a cost of $99 per resin refill. Now, let's compare to that if you were using a multi-stage system like the XERO Pure. You can expect to produce about 5,500 gallons or work for 184 hours before spending $59 to refill the resin. So to produce the same 5,500 gallons through a DI tank only would cost you roughly $800. See where the savings compounds over time?

Want to do more research? Check out our [**Understanding Purification Guide**](/content/pages/understanding-purification "Understanding Purification Guide"/index.html) or reach out to our Experts and we'd be happy to go as in-depth as you want!
