Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can end up in groundwater and, in some places, in household drinking water. Because you can’t see, smell, or taste it, testing is the only reliable way to know whether your Cox well or municipal supply contains radium. Lab reports may list it as radium-226 or radium-228, and when concentrations are a concern, many local homeowners prefer a treatment that protects the whole house rather than only a single tap.
Radium gets into water as it moves through certain rock and soil types, so its occurrence depends on local geology more than on how you use water day to day. It can behave like other dissolved minerals and travel with hardness or total dissolved solids, even when the water looks clear. In Cox, treating water at the point it enters the home is a practical way to reduce long-term exposure and maintain consistent water quality for drinking, cooking, and bathing at every fixture.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is often the most effective single-filter option. These systems use resin beads that exchange sodium or potassium ions for certain dissolved minerals, and they can remove radium in the same process. When radium is present dissolved in the water rather than bound to sediment, an ion exchange setup installed on the main line treats all water entering a Cox home and helps ensure consistent protection at every tap.
Because ion exchange resin has a limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential for dependable radium reduction over time. The resin requires regular regeneration, and system settings should match your water chemistry and household demand so the media doesn’t exhaust prematurely. Prefiltration for sediment often helps protect the resin and maintain steady flow. Mr. Pure Water can help Cox homeowners choose and install a whole-house ion exchange system that targets radium-226 and radium-228 while fitting your plumbing and daily water use.
