Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can enter groundwater and occasionally show up in residential drinking water. Because you can’t see, smell, or taste it, the only reliable way to know if it’s in your tap is through testing. Lab reports may list it as radium-226 or radium-228. Many North Miami homeowners prefer a solution that treats every faucet — not just the kitchen — so the whole household is protected.
Radium tends to dissolve into water as it passes through certain rocks and soils, so its occurrence depends on local geology more than household activity. It often travels with other dissolved minerals, which is relevant here in North Miami where municipal water is typically hard and can carry scale-forming minerals. If you’re worried about long-term exposure, treating water at the point it enters your house keeps drinking, cooking, and bathing water consistently safer across every tap.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is frequently the single-filter option that works best. These systems use resin beads to exchange sodium or potassium for dissolved minerals, and that same process can capture radium present in the water. When radium is dissolved rather than bound to sediment, an ion exchange unit installed on the main line treats all incoming water so every fixture in your North Miami home benefits.
Because ion exchange resin has limited capacity, correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential to keep radium removal reliable. The resin requires regular regeneration, and system settings should reflect your water chemistry and household demand so the media doesn’t become exhausted prematurely. Homes with North Miami’s hard municipal water often gain extra protection from a sediment prefilter to reduce scale and protect the resin. Mr. Pure Water can help choose and install a whole-house ion exchange system that targets radium-226 and radium-228 while matching your plumbing and daily water use.
