Including filter system and high-performance Barium filter.
Barium is a metal that occurs naturally and can leach into groundwater as it moves through certain rock and soil. When it appears in a home's water, it usually has no color, taste, or smell, so the only way to know is through testing or a utility report. If you live in The Crossings and are worried about barium or other dissolved minerals in your Miami-Dade water, start with a test and then choose a system designed specifically for dissolved metals.
Dissolved barium behaves more like the minerals that cause hard water than like dirt or chlorine, so standard cartridge filters meant for sediment or taste often won’t remove it. Homeowners in The Crossings, where Miami-Dade’s supply is typically hard and mineral scale can build up in warm, humid weather, usually look to point-of-entry treatments. A whole-house approach treats water coming into the home so drinking, cooking, bathing, and laundry all receive the same protection.
For whole-house reduction of dissolved barium, a salt-based ion exchange water softener is frequently the most effective single filter style. Ion exchange swaps certain dissolved ions in the water for sodium or potassium ions on a resin bed; because barium behaves like other hardness minerals, the resin can capture it as water passes through the tank. Installed at the main service line, this type of system treats every tap in a The Crossings home rather than relying on a small under-sink unit.
A correctly sized ion exchange system is matched to your household’s water use and the mineral levels shown in testing, and it’s regenerated on a schedule to maintain performance. If the resin bed is too small or not regenerated often enough, it will lose effectiveness. Many homeowners in the Miami metropolitan area add a prefilter to protect the resin from sediment, but the ion exchange tank remains the primary treatment for dissolved barium. Mr. Pure Water can help The Crossings residents choose and size a whole-house system so barium reduction is consistent at every tap.
