Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can appear in groundwater and sometimes end up in household water supplies. Because you can’t see, taste, or smell it, testing is the only reliable way for Frink homeowners to know if their tap water contains radium. Lab reports may also list it as radium-226 or radium-228. When residents want protection throughout the house, many choose a treatment that covers every faucet rather than just a single point of use.
Radium gets into water as it moves through certain rock and soil, so its presence depends on local geology more than how you use water at home. It can travel with other dissolved minerals, much like hardness, even when water looks clear. For Frink families concerned about long-term exposure, treating water where it enters the house provides the broadest coverage. A whole-house system treats all plumbing lines, keeping drinking, cooking, and bathing water consistent across your home.
An ion exchange water softener is often the most effective single-filter whole-house option for reducing radium. These systems use resin beads that exchange sodium or potassium for certain dissolved minerals, and radium can be removed through that same process. That makes ion exchange a good choice when radium is present dissolved in the water rather than bound to particles. Installed on the main line into a Frink home, it delivers protection to every tap.
Because ion exchange media has limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential for dependable radium reduction. The resin needs periodic regeneration, and systems should be configured for your household demand and water chemistry so the media doesn’t exhaust prematurely. Many homeowners also add a sediment prefilter to protect the resin and preserve flow rates. Mr. Pure Water can assess your Frink plumbing and water needs, then recommend and install a whole-house ion exchange solution targeting radium-226 and radium-228.
