Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can sometimes enter groundwater and residential water supplies without any visible sign. Because you can’t see, smell, or taste radium, testing is the only reliable way to know what’s in your tap water in Avalon Beach. Lab results and water reports may name it as radium-226 or radium-228. When homeowners want protection across the house — not just at one faucet — they often choose treatment that covers every outlet.
Radium’s appearance in water is driven by the local rocks and soils it passes through, so geology is the main factor rather than routine household activities. Like other dissolved minerals, it can move through the plumbing even when water looks clear and may accompany hardness or other dissolved solids. If you’re thinking about long-term exposure in your Avalon Beach home, treating water where it enters the house gives consistent protection for drinking, cooking, and bathing throughout your plumbing system.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is commonly the most effective single-filter option. These systems use resin beads that exchange sodium or potassium ions for certain dissolved minerals, and radium can be removed during that process. They work best when radium is present dissolved in the water rather than bound to sediment. Installed on the main water line in an Avalon Beach home, an ion exchange system treats all incoming water so every tap receives the same conditioned water.
Because ion exchange resin has limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential to keep radium removal reliable over time. The resin requires regular regeneration, and system settings should be matched to your household’s demand and water chemistry so the media doesn’t exhaust prematurely. Many Avalon Beach homes also benefit from a sediment prefilter to protect the resin and maintain steady flow. Mr. Pure Water can help you choose and install a whole-house ion exchange system that targets radium-226 and radium-228 and fits your plumbing and usage patterns.
