Including filter system and high-performance Radium filter.
Radium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal that can enter groundwater and, in some places, affect household drinking water. Because you can’t see, taste, or smell it, testing is the only reliable way to know what’s in your tap water. You may find it referenced as radium-226 or radium-228 on lab reports. Many Wilton Manors homeowners who want homewide protection prefer solutions that treat every faucet rather than only a single point of use.
Radium tends to dissolve into water as it passes through certain rock and soil, so its occurrence depends on local geology more than daily plumbing habits. Like other dissolved minerals, it can travel with hardness and dissolved solids—even when water looks crystal clear. In Wilton Manors and greater Broward County, where municipal water is typically hard, treating water at the main line helps protect drinking, cooking, and bathing water throughout your home.
For whole-house radium reduction, an ion exchange water softener is commonly the single-filter choice recommended. These systems use resin beads that exchange sodium or potassium ions for certain dissolved minerals, and radium can be removed by that same process. When radium is present dissolved in water rather than bound to sediment, an ion exchange softener installed on the main incoming line treats all water entering the house so every tap benefits.
Ion exchange systems have limited capacity, so correct sizing and routine maintenance are essential for sustained radium control. The resin requires regular regeneration and system settings should match your water chemistry and household demand to avoid early exhaustion—especially important in hard-water areas like Wilton Manors where mineral scale is common. Many homeowners also add a sediment prefilter to preserve resin life and maintain steady flow; Mr. Pure Water can help you choose and install a whole-house ion exchange solution that targets radium-226 and radium-228 while fitting your plumbing and usage patterns.
