Including filter system and high-performance Radon filter.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and make its way into a home’s water supply. Although people often think of radon as an indoor air concern, it can come from water sources — especially private wells — and be released into the air when you shower, run the dishwasher, or do laundry. Homeowners in The Crossings frequently address both water and air pathways when evaluating radon risk in their houses.
Because radon in water has no taste, smell, or color, you can’t detect it by sampling a glass — testing is the only reliable option. Levels can vary block to block, so even neighbors in The Crossings or nearby Kendall may see different results. If testing shows elevated radon in your water, consider solutions that match your plumbing layout and daily water use; treating water at the point it enters the home gives protection to every faucet, shower, and appliance.
The most effective single treatment for reducing radon in household water is typically a whole-house aeration system installed at the main water entry. Aeration removes radon by transferring the gas from water into an air stream, which is then vented away, making it more direct than sediment or carbon filters for this gas. Installed correctly, a whole-house aerator lowers radon levels throughout a Crossings home rather than only at individual taps.
A whole-house aeration filter is a self-contained unit that mixes air into incoming water and vents the radon-rich air safely outside the house. Placed before the water heater and the rest of the plumbing, it treats all water used for bathing, cooking, and cleaning and helps prevent radon from being released inside. In Miami-Dade’s hard-water conditions — like those affecting The Crossings — pairing aeration with appropriate prefiltration can reduce mineral buildup and keep the system working well; Mr. Pure Water can assess your plumbing and recommend the right aeration setup and location.
