Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and find its way into a home’s water supply. Though most people associate radon with indoor air, it can also be present in well water and other sources, releasing into the air when you shower, run a dishwasher, or do laundry. Orchid homeowners often consider both water and indoor air when addressing radon because those everyday activities can move radon from water into the air you breathe.
Because radon in water has no smell, taste, or color, you can’t detect it by sight or sip—testing is the only dependable way to know what’s in your supply. Levels may differ block to block, so even neighboring houses around Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club or along the Treasure Coast can have different results. If testing shows elevated radon in your water, consider solutions that match your plumbing and household habits; treating at the main water entry gives protection to every faucet, shower and appliance in the home.
The most effective single treatment for removing radon from household water is a whole-house aeration system installed at the main water inlet. Aeration transfers radon out of the water into an airstream, which is then vented away, and that gas-focused approach is generally more effective for radon than standard sediment or carbon filters. With an aeration system in place, radon levels in water are reduced for the entire home rather than only at individual taps.
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 house. Placed before the water heater and main plumbing, it treats water used for bathing, cooking and cleaning across your Orchid property and helps protect fixtures that can corrode more quickly in the region’s salt air. When needed, prefiltration can be added to protect the aeration unit from hard water sediments and keep everything running well.
