Including filter system and high-performance Radon filter.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can dissolve into groundwater and enter a home's water supply. While most people associate radon with indoor air, it can be present in well water and other sources, and everyday activities — like showering, doing laundry, or running the dishwasher — can release radon from water into the air you breathe. Homeowners in Washington Park often consider both water and air testing when addressing radon concerns to protect their families.
Because radon has no taste, smell, or color, you can't detect it by looking at or sampling a glass of water. The only reliable way to know if your Washington Park home's water contains radon is to test, since levels can vary even between nearby properties. If tests show elevated radon in your supply, choosing treatments that match your plumbing and daily water use—ideally a whole-house solution—helps ensure every faucet and appliance is addressed.
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 out of water into a controlled airflow before that water reaches showers, sinks, and appliances. Because radon is a gas, aeration targets gas removal more directly than sediment or carbon-only filters, providing lower radon throughout a Washington Park home's plumbing rather than at just one tap.
A whole-house aeration filter is a self-contained unit that mixes air with incoming water and vents the radon-laden air safely outdoors. Placed before the water heater and the rest of the home's plumbing, it treats all water used for bathing, cooking, and cleaning — important in South Florida where hard water can contribute to mineral buildup in fixtures. When needed, we pair aeration with prefiltration to protect the system and downstream plumbing; Mr. Pure Water can recommend the best aeration setup and placement for Washington Park homes.
