Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can find its way into groundwater and, in some places, household drinking water. You can’t see, taste, or smell it, so the only reliable way to know whether it’s in your tap is testing. Labs and water reports may list it as radium-226 or radium-228. Many homeowners around June Park choose treatments that protect every faucet in the house rather than just a single point of use.
Because radium dissolves from certain rock and soil types, its occurrence is driven by local geology rather than daily household activities. It often travels with other dissolved minerals, including the hardness that’s common in Brevard County water, so water can look clear even when radium is present. If you’re worried about long-term exposure in your June Park residence, treating water at the main line with a whole-house system delivers consistent reduction for drinking, cooking, and bathing.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is frequently the most effective single-filter option. These systems use resin beads to swap sodium or potassium for certain dissolved minerals, and radium can be removed through the same exchange process. When radium is present dissolved in the water rather than bound to sediment, an ion exchange softener installed on the main line treats all water entering a June Park home and helps maintain uniform protection at every tap.
An ion exchange system has limited capacity, so correct sizing and regular maintenance are essential for dependable radium removal in June Park homes. The resin needs periodic regeneration, and system settings should match your water chemistry and household demand—especially in our hard-water area—to avoid premature exhaustion. Many households also add a sediment prefilter to protect the resin and keep flow rates steady; Mr. Pure Water can recommend and install a whole-house ion exchange solution that targets radium-226 and radium-228 and suits your plumbing and usage.
