Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can enter groundwater and, in some places, household water supplies. You won’t be able to see, smell, or taste it, so the only reliable way to know if it’s present in your Wagner water is to test. Lab reports may list it as radium-226 or radium-228. When people find elevated levels, many homeowners prefer a treatment that protects the entire house rather than just one faucet.
Because radium dissolves from certain rock and soil as water moves through the ground, its occurrence is tied to local geology more than everyday plumbing use. In Wagner, where some homes are on municipal lines and others on private wells and water tends to be hard, radium can travel with other dissolved minerals even when water appears clear. If long-term exposure is a concern, treating water at the point it enters your home keeps drinking, cooking, and bathing water consistently protected throughout the plumbing system.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is often the best single-filter choice. These systems use resin beads that exchange sodium or potassium ions for dissolved minerals, and radium can be removed as part of that process. When radium is present dissolved in the water rather than bound to sediments, an ion exchange unit installed on the main line treats all incoming water so every tap in your Wagner home benefits from the same protection.
Ion exchange systems have limited capacity, so correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential for ongoing radium control. The resin requires regular regeneration, and settings should match your water chemistry—especially in hard-water areas—and household demand to avoid early exhaustion. Many Wagner homes also gain from a sediment prefilter to protect the resin and maintain steady flow. Mr. Pure Water can help choose and install a whole-house ion exchange solution that targets radium-226 and radium-228 while fitting your plumbing and usage patterns.
