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 radium, testing is the only reliable way to know what’s coming from your taps in Fort Mason. You may find it listed on lab reports as radium-226 or radium-228. When homeowners want whole-home protection rather than treating a single faucet, they typically look for a system that treats water at the main line so every sink, shower, and appliance is covered.
Radium enters water as it moves through certain rock and soil, so its occurrence depends on local geology more than household habits. In Fort Mason, where municipal and well supplies often have higher mineral content (hard water), radium can travel alongside other dissolved solids even when water appears clear. If you’re worried about long-term exposure, the most reliable approach is to treat water where it enters your home: a whole-house system keeps drinking, cooking, and bathing water consistent and reduces radium throughout the plumbing.
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 that same process can capture radium. This approach works well when radium is dissolved in the water rather than bound to sediment. Installed on the main service line in Fort Mason homes, an ion exchange softener treats all incoming water so every tap gets the same level of protection.
Because ion exchange resin has limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are important to keep radium reduction reliable. The resin must be regenerated on a schedule that matches your household demand and local water chemistry—especially in Fort Mason’s hard water—so the media doesn’t become exhausted prematurely. Many homes also benefit from a sediment prefilter to shield the resin and maintain steady flow. Mr. Pure Water can help Fort Mason 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.
