Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can enter groundwater and, in some places, residential tap water. It won’t change the look, smell, or taste of your water, so the only way to be sure is through testing. You may also see it listed as radium-226 or radium-228 on lab results. Many Kendall homeowners choose treatments that protect every faucet in the house rather than only treating a single fixture.
Because radium dissolves from certain rock and soil types, its presence depends on local geology more than household behavior. In the Miami-Dade area—where Kendall draws from limestone aquifers and water is commonly hard—radium can move with other dissolved minerals and hardness, even when the water looks clear. If you’re worried about long-term exposure, treating water at the point it enters your Kendall home provides consistent reduction for drinking, cooking, and bathing across every tap.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is frequently the best single-filter choice. These systems use resin beads to exchange sodium or potassium for dissolved minerals, and they can capture radium as part of that process. When radium is present dissolved in water rather than bound to sediment, a properly installed ion exchange unit on the main line treats all incoming water and helps keep protection uniform throughout a Kendall plumbing system.
Because ion exchange media have limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential for dependable radium removal. The resin needs regular regeneration, and settings should be matched to your home’s water chemistry—especially in hard-water areas like Kendall—so the media doesn’t exhaust prematurely. Prefiltration for sediment is often recommended to protect flow and extend resin life; Mr. Pure Water can help pick and install a whole-house ion exchange system that targets radium-226 and radium-228 and fits your plumbing and water use.
