Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can appear in groundwater and sometimes in residential drinking water. Because it has no color, taste, or odor, the only reliable way to know if it’s present is through testing. You may also see it listed as radium-226 or radium-228 on lab reports. Many Gomez homeowners who want protection at every faucet choose a whole-house approach rather than treating a single tap.
Radium gets into water as it travels through certain rock and soil, so its occurrence depends more on local geology than on everyday use. It can behave like other dissolved minerals and sometimes moves with hardness or sediment — a relevant concern in Florida where mineral scaling and sediment can vary between municipal supplies and private wells. If long-term exposure worries you, installing treatment at the point where water enters your Gomez home helps ensure consistent water quality for drinking, cooking, and bathing.
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 through the same process. When radium is dissolved rather than tied up in sediment, an ion exchange unit installed on the main line will treat all incoming water and provide protection at every tap in your Gomez home.
Because ion exchange media has limited capacity, correct sizing and regular maintenance are essential for dependable radium removal. The resin requires periodic regeneration, and settings should reflect your water chemistry and household demand so the media doesn’t exhaust prematurely. Many Gomez homes benefit from a sediment prefilter to reduce scaling and protect the resin while keeping flow steady. Mr. Pure Water can help choose and install a whole-house ion exchange system designed to target radium-226 and radium-228 and match your plumbing and usage.
