Including filter system and high-performance Radon filter.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and become part of a home’s water supply. While most people associate radon with indoor air, it can also be present in well water and, less commonly, other sources — and when you run a shower or use other hot water, some radon can transfer from the water into the air. Lotus homeowners often consider both water and air testing when addressing radon to get a full picture of exposure in their humid subtropical climate and varying local water sources.
Because radon has no taste, odor, or color, you can’t detect it by looking at or tasting your water. The only reliable way to know if your home’s water contains radon is to test, since levels can differ from one property to the next depending on the local well or utility. If testing shows elevated radon in your Lotus home’s water, taking action that fits your plumbing layout and daily water use is a smart step — and treating the water where it enters the house helps protect every faucet, shower and appliance.
To reduce radon throughout the home, the most effective single treatment is generally a whole-house aeration system installed at the main water inlet. Aeration strips radon out of the water by transferring the gas into a contained airflow before plumbing distributes water to showers, faucets, and laundry. Because radon is a gas, aeration targets gas transfer directly and is often more effective for this contaminant than sediment or carbon-only filters, delivering lower radon levels across the entire Lotus home.
A whole-house aeration filter is a self-contained unit that mixes air with incoming water and vents the radon-laden air safely outside the home. Placed before the water heater and main plumbing, it treats all household water used for bathing, cooking and cleaning, and can be paired with prefiltration to handle moderate mineral scale common in parts of Florida and protect the system. Mr. Pure Water can evaluate your Lotus property and recommend the right aeration setup and placement for dependable, whole-home radon reduction.
